PhD in Civil Engineering with a specialization in Structures, recently completed (July 2024) at the University of Coimbra. Her dissertation, titled “Moment-Resistant Connections for Timber Structures,” involved extensive experience in the experimental evaluation of structures and finite element modeling, with expertise in Abaqus software. She is currently a postdoctoral researcher in a research group focused on the seismic characterization of insulated precast concrete walls, as part of the R2U Technologies – Modular Systems project.
