I am a Portuguese sociologist working at the Centre for Research and Studies in Sociology, University Institute of Lisbon (CIES-IUL). From the moment of graduation onwards my scientific path was orientated to the subject of social and spatial inequalities. Issues such as social exclusion, territorial marginalization, spatial mobilities and social capital have been at the core of my individual and collective research projects. Simultaneously, I' ve specialized in certain data analyses techniques, in particular, factorial and cluster analysis. In addition, I acquired some expertise in the supervision of socio-cultural animation and dynamization, especially those related with local development projects.
