Currently a PhD Student at the doctoral programme Biology and Ecology of Global Change at the University of Aveiro, affiliated with CESAM & Department of Biology, University of Aveiro. From January 2019 to June 2020 I was a research fellow at CESAM & Department of Biology, University of Aveiro. I was an intern at this institution, from February 2018 to December 2018 and a ERASMUS + grantee, at the Croatian Institute for Biodiversity in Zagreb from August 2015 to December 2015. I have an MSc in Conservation Biology from the Faculty of Sciences, University of Lisbon. As a researcher my main areas of interest are ecology, biodiversity conservation and wildlife management. I am the author/co-author of 2 peer-reviewed publications and 3 scientific communications in national and international conferences.
