I'm a MSc Computer Science student from the University of Beira Interior, Portugal, with a keen interest in Blockchain, Distributed Systems, and Functional Programming.
Recently interned at Nethermind, diving deep into Blockchain Consensus Protocols and Layer 2s.
- BSc and MSc in Computer Science from the University of Beira Interior
- Intern, Nethermind (June 2023 - August 2023)
- Teams: Starknet.go
- Junior Researcher, Release Lab, University of Beira Interior (Sep 2022 - Present)
