Professional summary

I am an architect with an Integrated Master's degree in Architecture and a strong interest in improving the well-being of people through thoughtful, harmonious, and ecological urbanism.

My academic path began at the University of Beira Interior, continued through an Erasmus experience at the University of Valladolid, and was completed at the University of Minho, where I finished my master's degree in 2023.

My dissertation focused on a public space for the community of Urbanização da Quintã in Guimarães, within the field of Architecture, City and Territory, and I achieved a grade of 17 out of 20.

I consider myself creative, dedicated, focused, and highly motivated in every task I take on. I value quality, rigor, and attention to detail, and I always aim for strong results in the work I deliver.

I adapt well to new environments and enjoy teamwork, collective success, and collaborative problem-solving. I also bring experience in teaching, telemarketing, customer service, and sales, along with technical training in sales and customer assistance.

I am currently working in freelance collaboration with various studios and continue to develop my professional profile through training in bioclimatic architecture and spatial planning and urban development.
