My name is Antonio Alves and Lately I have given more value to quality of life than to the money itself, then since 2013 I live in Interlagos, close to my job, with my wife, Tamires, and my pet, Simba! I love animals and the contact with nature.

Practically every day I practice physical activity, like cycling and running for at least 1h30 (one hour and a half).

In jan/2016 I was weighing 102 kg and today I was weighing 78 kg and I am liking this version of mine.

I have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science since 2006 and I taught mathematics until 2005.

Since 2015 I have two jobs. My main source of income is through the IBM where I provide services for Santander bank since 2009 and my secondary source of income is through my own consultancy where I provide services for Carrefour bank. My schedule is very tight.

My main function is to administration BI (Business Intelligence) systems in Linux, like ETL (Extraction, Transformation and Load of Data) or Dashboards tools. My knowledge is greater in PowerCenter (ETL tool), but I have some knowledge of SAS, MicroStrategy, Pentaho and others tools.

This year I made the decision to move to Australia because Brazil is very insecure and with a very high cost of life with little return from the government. I chose Australia because its climate is similar to Brazil and it is a wonderful development country with beautiful scenery.
