BIO
Dropped out of computer science MS to move to Brazil and be the first data scientist at Nubank. Went from 30 employees to 1500 and 250 customers to 1.5 million. Left for a couple years to work as a tech lead for a blockchain startup in Singapore. Left after a couple of years to pursue my obsession with markets, which ultimately led me back to Brazil, meeting my cofounder Ruben, and reuniting with my former Nubank colleagues to provide access to the US markets to all Brazilians.
Ex-company, school and discipline below are derived from this bio. Nothing is inferred when the bio is missing.
