He went on to earn a M.Sc. in Integrated Circuits and System from the Université Paris-Saclay and a Specialization degree in Micro and Nano Electronics from CentraleSupélec both in Paris, France. His work focused mostly on integrated circuit design for harsh environments. He then earned an M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from Coppe/UFRJ with a focus on computer vision and machine learning and an emphasis on Generative Adversarial Networks.

He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Ocean Engineering here at UNH and researching crowdsourced bathymetry acquisition and processing.

When not in his cubicle, Adriano also enjoys cooking, terrorizing his neighbors with his harmonica and painting miniatures.
