Founders

A little about the journey of the Techknowledge founders.

Leticia Dias

My journey in technology began back in high school, when I joined a technical school and had my first contact with programming. That's where I discovered my passion for the field. Shortly after, I became a competitor in the Olimpíada do Conhecimento, representing the Web Technologies occupation.

I've always been driven by the desire to contribute, and that led me to work as an IT instructor, embracing the mission of preparing students for the job market.

I was an ambassador for Rocketseat's Space Squad, where I had the opportunity to actively collaborate with the tech community, helping people in the tech community grow in their journeys.

Today, I continue my journey as a full stack developer, but with a focus on frontend and design, using technologies such as: react, tailwindcss, typescript, nestjs and postgresql.

Mikael Ribeiro

Born in Maceió, Alagoas, from an early age I fell in love with turning ideas into code. At 23, I've been living in Abu Dhabi for almost two years, working as a Software Solutions Expert, focusing on C# and .NET for robust backend.

In education, I prepare and teach students in these technologies, training them to compete and represent the United Arab Emirates in international competitions, such as the WorldSkills International Competition.

My day-to-day involves sharing best practices with GIT, software architecture and enterprise development.

I'm driven by curiosity, by a passion for technology and by the desire to shape the next generation of developers.

From the Brazilian Northeast to the innovation hub of the Middle East, my journey involves skill, dedication and resilience — and best of all, this is just the beginning.
