PhD in Engineering and Management, specialising in how technological change impacts labour markets, with 6+ years of econometric analysis in Stata on large-scale data from Eurostat (EU-SILC) and Statistics Portugal (SCIE, Quadros de Pessoal). One paper under review at a Q1 journal, a second in submission stage; invited peer reviewer for a Q1 journal in the field.
