Dr. Da Silva is a distinguished data analytics and engineering instructor at Central Piedmont Community College, where he has been imparting knowledge since 2021. With a career spanning over 25 years, he has made significant contributions to the fields of data science, mechanical engineering and education.

Dr. Da Silva's professional journey began in 1998 as an electronic technician at Personal Video Service, a Sony Corporation dealer in Brazil. His early career was marked by a dedication to both work and voluntary teaching, which laid the foundation for his future endeavors. In 2003, he transitioned to academia as a mathematics and physics tutor and professor at Curso e Colégio Anglo – Unidade Leonardo da Vinci, where he served until 2007.

In 2008, Dr. Da Silva moved to the United States to further his education and career. He joined Clemson University as a lead teaching assistant for various mechanical engineering courses, a role he held until 2014. During this period, he also gained practical experience as a mechanical engineering intern at MSK Covertech Group in 2010. His academic excellence was recognized in 2010 when he received a teaching award for outstanding performance in college classes at Clemson University.

Dr. Da Silva's expertise led him to the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) in 2015, where he worked as an engineer and scientist III and later as a data analyst until 2020. His tenure at EPRI was marked by significant achievements, including managing a project with an annual budget exceeding one million dollars. In 2021, he joined Volvo Trucks North America as a senior data scientist, contributing valuable insights through his extensive experience in data analysis and electronics.

In addition to his roles at Central Piedmont Community College and Volvo Trucks North America, Dr. Da Silva has been an educational consultant for Tutor Doctor since 2021. His dedication during the pandemic earned the school an award due to excellent reviews from parents and students.

Dr. Da Silva's academic background laid the foundation for his impressive career. He holds a Bachelor of Science in physics from Universidade de São Paulo and a Master of Science in mechanical engineering from Clemson University. After earning a Doctor of Philosophy in mechanical engineering from Clemson University in 2016, he obtained a postgraduate certificate in applied data science from MIT Professional Education in 2021. He attributes his success to several influential figures, including the renowned scientist Dr. Richard Feynman, whose commitment to meticulous experimentation and scientific rigor remains an ongoing source of inspiration.

"The truth always turns out to be simpler than you thought."
~ Dr. Richard P. Feynman

Beyond his professional achievements, Dr. Da Silva is actively involved in civic-minded organizations like FIRST and serves as a peer reviewer for the ASME Journal of Vibrations and Acoustics, and the journal Probabilistic Engineering Mechanics. Looking ahead, he aims to return to teaching graduate-level courses at a university and integrate his diverse background in physics, engineering and data science with his passion for nuclear technology. His unique ability to bridge these distinct fields positions him well for addressing concerns over the safety of utilizing nuclear technology to improve the availability of resources in the future.
