I participated in a technology and accessibility call involving teams from Coca-Cola in Brazil and Mexico, supporting communication efforts for Deaf employees who depend on accessible solutions in their daily work environment.

As one of the developers behind the Helpvox platform, I remain deeply committed to using technology to create inclusion and real impact. Even from the United States, I’m always willing to support projects that strengthen accessibility, improve communication, and expand opportunities for the Deaf community.

Moments like this remind me that accessibility is not limited by borders. Technology has the power to connect people, companies, and communities across different countries through inclusion and innovation.

At the same time, experiences like this continue opening doors for future partnerships and opportunities in the American market, reinforcing my long-term mission of combining technology, accessibility, and social impact.

As a tech entrepreneur and accessibility specialist, it was an honor to be part of an environment so rich in innovation, culture, and inclusion. I went there with a clear goal, to better understand the technologies that are transforming accessibility in the U.S., identify business opportunities, and learn how I can apply these solutions across my ventures.

The insights I gained will directly support the evolution of my business model and help shape new accessible tools and platforms for both private companies and public services.

I’m proud to be building something that aligns with the needs of this community and equally proud to contribute to the innovation and inclusion landscape in my new home, the United States.

I’m currently enrolled in the AWS Cloud Technical Essentials program on Coursera, officially delivered by Amazon Web Services. My goal is to earn the highly respected AWS Cloud Solutions Architect Certification, a credential that opens doors to world-class projects and puts professionals at the heart of global cloud infrastructure.

📚 This course has already expanded my understanding of:

• Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances
• Serverless technologies like AWS Lambda & Fargate
• Container services and compute lifecycle on AWS
• How modern software scales across the world using cloud-native best practices

🌎 Over 30% of the world’s cloud infrastructure runs on AWS, and most top US companies build their products using this stack. As a software developer and CTO, mastering this platform is not just a certification goal. It is a strategic move for the future of my career and business in the U.S.

🔧 I’m building solid foundations to support innovative solutions, not just for my companies, but to contribute to the American economy through accessible technology, innovation, and smart cloud architecture.

Let’s keep building.

A few months ago, I took a decisive step in that direction: I officially registered my new tech company in the United States — HubLab Adeptus Software Social Innovation LLC.

This name was born out of intentionality.
💬 After conversations with several American professionals and entrepreneurs, I decided to evolve the original name — Adeptus Social Solutions — into something that reflects both the technological and social impact essence of the business.
That’s how HubLab Adeptus was born:
A technology hub for software, apps, AI integrations, and social innovation.

As an immigrant entrepreneur and software engineer, this is more than just a company for me it’s a mission. I’m currently:

• 📊 Conducting market studies to understand the real demands of the U.S. tech landscape
• 🗣️ Improving my business English to strengthen my communication and leadership
• 🧠 Structuring the entire technological foundation to build solid, scalable, and meaningful solutions

My core focus remains clear:
💡 Developing software, apps, and AI-powered tools with real-world impact especially in my community!

I’m deeply grateful for the opportunities I’ve encountered so far and excited for what’s ahead.

Here’s a small preview of what I’m working on 👇

For me, this is much more than just an event. As a technology entrepreneur and EB2-NIW immigrant with a mission to develop inclusive tools for the Deaf community, DeafNation represents a direct line to the people I aim to serve.

My goal in participating is clear:

• To understand the real needs and cultural dynamics of the Deaf community in the U.S.
• To connect with stakeholders, from advocates to innovators, who are already building accessibility solutions.
• And to explore how my background in software development, AI integrations, and mobile apps can empower this community with better tools and experiences.

This experience will help me gather valuable insights that I plan to incorporate into my projects — including interpreter platforms, accessibility layers in service apps, and AI-driven communication tools.

Columbus continues to surprise me with the richness of its communities and the strength of its local networks. This city is more than a base — it’s becoming a place of co-creation and opportunity for inclusive innovation.

I look forward to learning, connecting, and contributing — and I’ll be sharing takeaways from DeafNation soon.

Earlier this week, while walking through a parking lot here in Columbus, Ohio, I came across something that immediately caught my attention a school bus from the Ohio State School for the Deaf and Blind.

To many, this might seem like a regular yellow school bus. But to me, it represents something much deeper. It symbolizes how the United States and especially Ohio — acknowledges and supports the specific needs of the Deaf and Blind community. Seeing a dedicated vehicle like this isn’t just encouraging, it reinforces the importance of accessibility as a fundamental right, not just an optional feature.

As someone who immigrated to the U.S. under the EB2-NIW visa with a mission to promote accessibility for the Deaf through technology, this moment reminded me why I’m here and why my work matters.

This photo, while simple, speaks volumes about a society’s values and it gives me even more motivation to align my work with those values.

It has been seven months since I arrived in the United States under the EB2-NIW visa, and the journey so far has been both exciting and demanding — exactly as I expected. Adapting to a new country involves more than just logistics; it means understanding new laws, embracing a different culture, navigating a new transportation system, and learning how to rebuild everything from scratch.

But as I’ve learned throughout my life, meaningful achievements often come from uncomfortable beginnings.

As part of my endeavor focused on accessibility for the Deaf community, I’ve begun to identify several valuable opportunities here in Columbus, Ohio — a place I now call home and a city rich with untapped potential. I’ve had the privilege of meeting visionary entrepreneurs and business leaders who have inspired me to expand the scope of my original project and explore new applications of my technological expertise.

These conversations helped me see how my skills in software development, AI integration, and accessibility can be applied not only in Deaf-centered initiatives, but also in broader areas like home services and enterprise technology. In fact, many sectors in Ohio still operate without modern digital solutions — and this gap represents a huge opportunity to innovate and deliver impact.

I’m currently involved in three major initiatives:

• A technology company focused on building smart applications and software — with accessibility as a core value;
• A home services company where I act as CTO, applying tech and accessibility solutions to serve diverse customers, including the Deaf community;
• And preparations to bring my former Brazilian company — which provides live interpreter services for Deaf individuals — to the U.S. market.

Each of these projects is aligned with my mission: using technology as a tool to build a more inclusive and accessible world. And Columbus has proven to be fertile ground for this mission.

This blog marks the beginning of my journey’s documentation. I will use this space to share not only the technical progress of my projects, but also insights, challenges, and reflections as I continue to develop impactful solutions aligned with the goals of my EB2-NIW endeavor.
