My app "Natu's Journey" was one of the 350 worldwide winners of the Apple WWDC 2021 Scholarship program.
It is an international competition that allows students to participate in the Worldwide Developers Conference (Apple's annual iOS developers conference), in California.
It was about Biomimicry, a field of study that is about borrowing nature’s recipes and blueprints and using the design ideas. The innovations of the natural world are a never-ending source of inspiration. Biomomicry is a multi-disciplinary practice, so it brings together design, engineering and biology.
My goal is that the user learns about Biomimicry and how we can create innovation inspired by nature. I hope he looks at the world with new lens and start asking himself "how would mother nature solve this?". Now is the time to begin creating designs, materials, and technologies of our own that are not only sustainable, but also regenerative and restorative—supporting the fabric of life on Earth. This way we can take steps toward significant change! Exibir menos

My app "Expedition to the ISS" was one of the 350 worldwide winners of the Apple WWDC 2020 Swift Student Challenge.
It is an international competition that allows students to participate in the Worldwide Developers Conference (Apple's annual iOS developers conference) which happened to be full-remote this year.
It tells the story of a little robot named Nina, whose dream has always been to get to know space, and she was selected for the next expedition to the International Space Station (ISS). Your goal is to help Nina prepare for the launch, in which you will learn about how space suit works and how a rocket launch works, for example. I chose the International Space Station as a theme because it is a great example of the collaborative work of several nations, something that we strongly need nowadays. Exibir menos
