Born in Beja, Portugal, in 1998, has a Master\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s degree in Engineering Physics at Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal. Was an ERASMUS student for 6 months at the Technical University of Munich, Germany. His master\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s thesis concerned the phenomenology of hadronic interactions via the features of the distribution of the number of muons measured in Extensive Air Showers induced by ultra-high-energy protons and their measurement using Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC), in the context of the Pierre Auger Observatory. Currently, he is taking his Ph.D. at the Instituto Galego de Física de Altas Enerxías, of the University of Santiago de Compostela as a fellow of the la Caixa INPhINIT incoming doctoral program. Additionally, he is a member of the Pierre Auger Collaboration. His research focuses on the phenomenology of hadronic interactions in Extensive Air Showers using multiple shower observables and machine learning techniques. Additionally, he is working on increasing the sensitivity to astrophysical point sources of high-energy neutral particles, through the analysis of the spacetime distribution of cosmic-ray events.
