Biography

I am a trained pharmacist with a passion for the microscopic and intricate world of bacteria. I graduated with an MSci in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the Egas Moniz School of Health & Science and since then have been specializing in Microbiology. I worked as a QC Microbiologist and later on stepped into the realms of scientific research at University College London, where I investigated ways of tackling orthopedic prosthetic infections. I have also been a graduate teaching assistant for a few years now, which I absolutely love! In my PhD program at ISMB I am working with microbial communities trying to unravel complex bacterial interactions.

I am a self-proclaimed foodie and bookworm, who loves to swim and travel the world.
