I'm a Cognitive Linguist working on Natural Language Understanding within the framework of Frame Semantics and Construction Grammar. I'm also head of the FrameNet Brasil Computational Linguistics Lab, PI of ReINVenTA and Professor of the Graduate Program in Linguistics at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Brazil. Research Productivity Grantee of the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), and Guest Professor at the Department of Swedish, Multilingualism and Language Technology at the University of Gothenburg.
