With a strong academic background in Economic Geography and Economics, combined with extensive experience in data-driven research, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and analytical proficiency. My work across various research institutions and consultancies has honed my programming skills, allowing me to apply advanced computational techniques to economic and spatial analysis.
As a PhD graduate from the London School of Economics, my research extensively utilized Python, R, and STATA for econometric modeling, quantitative text analysis, and geospatial data processing. During my tenure as a Researcher at the Universidade Nova Urban Analytics Lab, I worked at the intersection of economics and data science, leveraging programming to extract insights from complex datasets. Additionally, my role as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Lisbon focused on assessing the local economic impacts of public transportation investments using geospatial analysis and machine learning techniques.
Beyond research, my teaching experience—including courses on Quantitative Methods and Techniques of Spatial Economic Analysis—has further refined my ability to translate complex technical concepts into accessible knowledge for students and colleagues. My expertise in ArcGIS and QGIS also enables me to conduct sophisticated spatial analyses, crucial for understanding regional economic patterns and urban development trends.More...
