She worked in the engineering industry between 1991 and 1995. Currently, she maintains collaboration in the engineering industry, she is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at ISEP since 1995, where she also served as vice-director (2008-2012). Currently, she is also a senior researcher at CERENA-Centro de Recursos Naturais e Ambiente an R&D Unit recognized by FCT and rated with Excellent. She is also a member of the Portuguese Association of Risks, Prevention and Security. Her main research interests span applied mathematics to groundwater decontamination, eco-efficiency, the impact of controlled fire in soils, wildfires, environmental risks and occupational risks. She has been working on several interdisciplinary R&D projects in collaboration with the engineering industry and possesses extensive experience in project leadership and co-leadership. She has authored many academic publications and scientific papers in book chapters, international scientific journals, and peer-reviewed conference proceedings. She has been doing intense scientific supervising activity, jury activity and manuscripts reviewer activity. She organized scientific events, moderated scientific sessions, gave invited talks according Erasmus Mobility Program, and participated in several science dissemination activities. She is also a reviewer for prestigious journals. She was a member of the proponent team of the Master¿s course in Mathematical Engineering (2006) and served as a board member of the statutory commission of ISEP (2009) and as a board member of the statutory commission of the Department of Mathematics of ISEP (2009).
