About Me

I was a researcher at HASLab, INESC TEC and Universidade do Minho. I got my PhD from the MAP-i program at Universidade do Minho, titled Design, Implementation and Evaluation of Model-Driven Spreadsheets, supervised by João Saraiva and Jácome Cunha.

I worked on modelling spreadsheets, bidirectional transformations, and test analysis. I've participated in the following projects: SSaaPP – SpreadSheets as a Programming Paradigm, FATBIT – Foundations, Applications and Tools for Bidirectional Transformation, and GreenSoftwareLab: Towards an Engineering Discipline for Green Software.

My interests vary from language analysis (parsing and metrics extraction) to formal methods. I prefer functional programming languages, namely Haskell, but can work with more mainstream languages. My hobbies include playing with electronics (Arduino and alike) and outdoors activities.

I'm currently trying the industry life.
