Bio:

I am currently a developer at Standard Chartered Bank. I’m also co-founder at Chordify, responsible for the functional back-end.

Before joining Standard Chartered, I was a postdoctoral research assistant in the Programming Languages group at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Oxford, working on the Unifying Theories of Generic Programming project. Previously I was a PhD student at the Department of Information and Computing Sciences of Utrecht University in the Netherlands. My PhD topic was Real-Life Datatype Generic Programming, supervised by Johan Jeuring, Andres Löh, and Doaitse Swierstra.

Before that I graduated from Minho University in Computer Science and Systems Engineering (Licenciatura em Engenharia de Sistemas e Informática).

I have also been a Summer Student at CERN, an intern at Philips Research, and a research intern at Microsoft Research Cambridge.
