Hi! Welcome to my personal website!

I am an Assistant Professor of Accounting at the University of Texas at Dallas since 2020. I will be visiting Bradesco Asset Management as their AI Research Fellow this summer to help develop applied AI tools.

My research examines how information is produced, regulated, and consumed in financial markets — and increasingly, how new technologies like large language models are reshaping those processes.

I teach Fundamentals of Accounting Analytics. Previously, I taught Financial Accounting and Analysis and Introductory Management Accounting. I am a CPA (Brazil, inactive).

I am the co-founder of the AI Accounting Lab at UTD. Outside UTD, I organize the BRA (Brazilian Accounting) Workshops and I am involved in BridgePHD, an initiative supporting Latin American students navigating the path to graduate education.

Before joining UTD, I held research and teaching assistant positions at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and at FUCAPE Business School (Brazil).

I am an Ad Hoc Reviewer for the Review of Financial Studies, The Accounting Review, Journal of Accounting Economics, Journal of Accounting Research, Review of Accounting Studies, Contemporary Accounting Research, Management Science, European Accounting Review, Production and Operations Management (POM), Accounting Horizons, Journal of Business Finance & Accounting, International Journal of Accounting, International Review of Financial Analysis, Journal of Banking & Finance, Financial Research Letters, and Regulation & Governance. I also serve as a track chair, reviewer, or discussant for multiple conferences in our field.

Besides researching and teaching, I enjoy spending time with family and being outdoors.

Research Interests: Information Production & Disclosure, Capital Markets, and ML/AI.
Nationality: Brazilian, Permanent Resident [United States]
