I am an Assistant Professor at the Production Engineering Department at the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB) in João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil, and the Adjunct Head of the Logistics and Optimization Group (LOG).

I received both my Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Production Engineering (2013) and my Master's degree in Production Engineering (2015) from UFPB. I obtained my PhD in Applied Mathematics (2020) at Polytechnique Montréal, Canada.

My research interests encompass a diverse range of topics within Operations Research, including both methodologies and applications:

• Methodologies: Combinatorial Optimization, Exact Methods, Branch-and-Cut, Column Generation, Metaheuristics, Robust Optimization, Multi-objective Optimization, and Decision Choice Models.

• Applications: Vehicle Routing and its variants, Machine and Personnel Scheduling, Lot Sizing Problems, Facility Layout Problems, Location Problems, Humanitarian and Sustainable Logistics, Scheduling for Sustainability, Optimization in Academic Resource Management, and Resource Optimization in Health Care Services.
