I am currently hired as a Research Associate working on the European project Marine Sabres where we are creating a simple socio-ecological model for the management of European Seas. Between 2020 and 2023, I was hired as head of the LABALGAE research lab at AQUAZOR, S.A., where I led a small research team focusing on macroalgal production for aquaculture. From 2010 to 2015 I was a post-doctoral researcher at the Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research (CIIMAR), and from 2016-2018 a post-doctoral researcher at the Centre for Ecology, Evolution and Environmental Changes (cE3c). I have a degree in Biology (University of Azores), a MRes in Marine Biology (University of Plymouth) and a PhD in Biological Sciences (University of Plymouth). I am an independent marine benthic ecologist with extensive research experience including (i) a multidisciplinary track record of publications in international peer-reviewed journals, (ii) a track record in securing competitive research fellowships and grants, (iii) experience in supervision of undergraduate and postgraduate students, and (iv) a wide network of collaborators. I have a total of 51 papers in international peer reviewed journals with an overall h-index of 19 (Scopus). I co-authored 2 book chapters published by Wiley-Blackwell (Biofouling) and Cambridge University Press (Interactions in the marine benthos: global patterns and processes) and presented my work in several symposia. The international network, exposure and collaborations are stated by +80 co-authors including top European researchers. Since the completion of my PhD I was involved in a total of 10 research projects: 2 as principal investigators, 1 as co-PI and 1 as a consultant securing over 800K euros in funds. I was part of the scientific committee of the 43rd European Marine Biology Symposium, I have completed the supervision of 2 PHD students, 11 MSc and 7 BCs at the University of the Azores or in collaboration (Imperial College of London, University of Southampton). From 2015 to 2018, I was appointed as invited lecturer in experimental design at the 3CBIO doctoral program (University of the Azores) and in 2021, I was invited as a reviewer for the 2022 FONDECYT Regular Competition by the National Research and Development Agency of Chile. I have been invited referee of a PhD thesis and I am regular reviewer for 27 scientific journals spanning a variety of topics. I am also an editor for PLoS One and Frontiers in Marine Sciences. My background includes a strong preparation in multivariate and univariate statistics and a critical knowledge about the design of complex experiments. Collectively, this diverse suite of experiences and training, plus my last year experience as head of a lab gives me considerable skills in project management, initiative, independent thinking, as well as collaborative and leadership skills.
