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 includes courses in statistics, risk analysis, and programming.

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, 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. 

Awards and Honours

  • Brazilian Central Bank - Top 5 Awad for Best Inflation Forecasting (October, 2015)
