I am a Sports Scientist currently working in Estoril Praia SAD, Lisbon, Portugal. My primary responsibilities include monitoring training loads, both individually and collectively, to potentiate the athletes and to work on diminishing injury risk; and assisting in the strength and conditioning work that is done in the gym. I have dedicated my last year working with GPS technology and translating theoretical knowledge into practical solutions for the wellbeing of the athletes. Despite giving support to the team technical staff both on and of the field, I focus a lot of my attention on the individual training loads. I am also the strength and conditioning coach for the youth football department in Grupo Desportivo Estoril Praia, where I help players increase their physique and body awareness. My primary responsibilities are giving support to the coaches in the field concerning the physical capacities that should be developed by players from different ages and working with the players in the gym to potentiate their physical capabilities. Academically, I have a Bachelor’s in Sports Science and a Master’s in Sports Training with Football specialization from Faculdade Motricidade Humana. I am also a UEFA B Football Coach. Until last year, I was also a football player competing in the highest women’s national league. Since childhood, football has been a great passion, and I have always kept it close, either by playing or coaching. In my last high school year, I decided to go abroad and embark on one of the most fulfilling experiences I have ever done. I left my comfort zone and spent one year studying abroad and living with a host family in Colorado Springs, USA.
