I was born in October 1983 in Viana do Castelo. In 2001 I moved to Braga to get my degree in Licenciatura em Engenharia de Sistema de Informática (LESI) and never left.

Since getting my degree, I have worked in both Academia and private companies, and have worked in several projects on a vast array of areas and with several different programming languages and technologies.

Currently, I work as an Invited Assistant in Department of Information Systems (DSI) and as a researcher at the R&Dinstitute Center for Computer Graphics (CCG).
