I am an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics at IST - Universidade de Lisboa. Previously, I was an assistant professor in the CS Department of Universidade Nova de Lisboa. Before that, I was a post doctoral fellow in the CS Department of Carnegie Mellon University, hosted jointly by Vipul Goyal and Venkatesan Guruswami. I have also spent some time at CQT (hosted by Divesh Aggarwal), UIUC (hosted by Olgica Milenkovic), UMich (hosted by Mahdi Cheraghchi), and the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing (as a visitor in the "Error-Correcting Codes: Theory and Practice" program). I received my PhD from the Department of Computing of Imperial College London, where I was advised by Mahdi Cheraghchi. Before that, I received an MSc in Computer Science from ETH Zurich and a BSc in Applied Mathematics and Computation from IST - Universidade de Lisboa.
