I was born in a small village in the north of Portugal. My passion for mathematics and physics led me to pursue a degree in Aerospace Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico. Throughout my studies, I've been driven to take on new projects and expand my knowledge beyond my chosen field. I found a particular interest in web development. Despite living in the city, my village remains an integral part of my life, and during the summer, I return to work in agriculture with my father.

Interests

Apart from being a web developer, I spend a lot of my time outdoors. I'm a cycling enthusiast and love exploring the streets of Lisbon on my bike or on foot. When I back to my village, I enjoy spending time in the fields with my father.

I also enjoy listening to music and watching movies. I'm an avid reader and always try to keep myself updated with the latest technology trends, which helps me in my studies and keeps me engaged with new developments in the field.
