I am a game and narrative designer who holds both a bachelor's and a master's degree in games. In 2020, I presented my master's dissertation, which explored emotional attachment between fictional characters and players. Currently, I'm pursuing a PhD at the University of Beira Interior in Arts and Media, where I'm planning to develop a game that emphasizes a narrative on mental health with the aim of raising awareness about mental health. Outside of academia, I have developed several games such as Dawn of Andromeda (2017), Blodoffer (2019), and Cape of Storms (2022). Additionally, I host a podcast titled "Um Olhar por Narrativa" that explores the narratives of multiple games with invited guests.
