Personal statement

I joined the Department of Management Science at the University of Strathclyde in 2023 as a Teaching Assistant. I have led quantitative courses across undergraduate and postgraduate programmes within the Department, as well as on programmes offered by the Departments of Accounting & Finance, the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship, and the School of Engineering. My teaching portfolio spans statistics, risk analysis, and programming for data analytics/finance.

My research is primarily focused on the application of statistical learning techniques to unstructured, high-dimensional (e.g. textual) datasets. In particular, I am interested in tracking the evolution of narratives over time and examining their influence on decision-making in business contexts.

Prior to pursuing a PhD at Strathclyde, I completed an MSc in Economics at the University of Edinburgh (Scottish Graduate Programme in Economics), and an MSc in Statistics for Data Science at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid.

I also previously worked in the Brazilian financial market, with experience in macroeconomics and equity research, and wealth management within asset management firms.
