GitHub Sponsors Profile

Hi!
I'm a technologist with about 15 years in the field, currently living in London, UK, but originally from Brazil. I'm specialised in data engineering and back-end development, and have been active mostly in the Go and Python communities as a speaker and open source contributor since early 2017. I'm also open for mentoring members of the community of any background.
You can see some of my speaking engagements here.
I'm the author of the following projects:

pacgo: a tutorial that teaches the Go programming language while building a Pac Man clone with emojis
datasus: a library for downloading the Brazilian healthcare datasets
read.dbc: an R package that enables reading DATASUS dbc file format

I'm also a contributor in the following projects:

go: the Go programming language
golang-samples: Go examples for the Google Cloud Platform

By sponsoring me you are helping me to continue my work on the projects above and others. I'm always building new projects and talks to share the knowledge with the world. The money you donate will be used to buy hardware, software and the tooling that I need for my projects.
For instance, to work on the Datasus project I need to pay for a VPN as the access to the database is blocked outside Brazil. I've also recently bought a new Windows laptop to move forward with my game development projects including the evolution of pacgo.
Thanks for your support! =^_^=
