Moizés
Almeida

I'm Moizés Almeida, a Computer Science graduate from Tufts. I work on systems-shaped problems (protocols, compilers, virtual machines) and care about the interface between people and the software underneath them.

Originally from Alexandria, in the Brazilian Northeast, I pair Computer Science with Human Factors design and gravitate toward interdisciplinary work (across engineering, design, research, and social impact).
