About me
I’m Rodrigo Sarlo Antonio Filho, a PhD student in Electrical Engineering at PUC-Rio, where I focus on time series forecasting. Currently, I’m spending a year as a visiting researcher at the Department of Economics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC).
Before beginning my PhD, I worked as a data scientist and quantitative analyst. My main interests lie in forecasting and data-driven decision-making.
