The first three years I worked mainly in the on-line section, where created special projects based on data visualizations, having been a pioneer at Folha with what is conventionally called data-driven Journalism. The two main projects of that time is “Radar da violência”, an application that points where there is an increase or decrease of crime in Sao Paulo city, and “Raio-X das escolas”, which provides basic information about all the schools of Brazil, like federal evaluation and approval rates. In 2012 I joined the print edition team and started to participate in the coverage of important events, such as trials of major crime cases, the protests of 2013 and the Fifa World Cup in 2014 (focused on infrastructure). I am responsible for urban mobility coverage (traffic and transport), but I also write reports about the main education and crime indicators.
