My academic path began with a Bachelor of Science in Materials Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico, which was concluded with a grade of 16/20. Subsequenetly, I enrolled in a Master Degree in Materials Engineering at Instituto Superior Técnico. During the first semester of my Master Degree, I did a semester abroad under the ERASMUS program at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. My Master dissertation "Biodegradable Microcapsules for High-performing Adhesives", obtained a final grade of 19/20. The Master Degree in Materials Engineering was concluded with a grade of 16/20. From 2019 to 2023, I was a member of the Materials Engineering student group (NEMat), where I was responsible for organizing events to publicize the course and help the students manage their academic life.
