I am an economist and a researcher. Currently, I am a 4th year PhD student at Università Commerciale Luigi Bocconi, in the Public Policy and Administration program.

Previously, I have acted as a teaching assistant at Nova School of Business and Economics and as an interviewer for the European Social Survey at the Institute of Social Sciences (ICS) of the University of Lisbon.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Economics from Católica-Lisbon School of Business and Economics and a master's degree in Economics from Nova School of Business and Economics. My broad fields of interest include authoritarianisms and democratization, radical parties, comparative politics and macroeconomics. I also have a specific interest in current-day Portuguese electoral dynamics and political communication.
