Hi! I’m Gabriel, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil :) I started learning iOS and Swift at the Apple Developer Academy, and I’m currently a CS post graduate student. My research interests are in programming languages, compilers and interpreters. Education is one of my greatest passions. Learning and teaching gives me purpose and joy. I love meeting new people, great storytelling, and solving challenging problems.
Scholarships
Gabriel has been awarded a WWDC scholarship four times. Here are the submissions that got him there.
In 2020, applicants were tasked with building an interactive playground to showcase their creativity and technical abilities. Here’s how Gabriel describes his winning submission.
My project is about privacy, technology and health. Privacy is something that must be actively sought, and we need to be provisioned with knowledge to make the right decisions. In my Playground we go through a simplified Privacy-Preserving Contact Tracing System, giving an overview of the protocol.
