01 // Intro

I am a polyvalent political analyst and strategic advisor based in Lisbon. My academic foundation in Political Science and International Relations is complemented by a background in Game Design and Computer Engineering. This unique combination allows me to perform truly multidisciplinary assessments and systemic analysis of political structures.

02 // The Work

Currently, I work as a political advisor and policy analyst in Lisbon's local government, while also serving as a teaching assistant for political science at the Catholic University of Portugal. My focus lies in international relations, public service reform, and leveraging technology to promote civic engagement.

03 // The Goal

I'm a multidisciplinarian at heart. Whether I'm navigating the realities of local politics or building a new digital tool, my mission is simple: finding structure in the noise and building systems that actually work.

The Poker Metaphor

Chess is often cited as the ultimate strategic game, yet it relies on perfect information. International politics and institutional maneuvering, however, operate in the fog of war. Poker—with its concealed variables, calculated bluffs, and probabilistic risk assessment—serves as a far more accurate metaphor for statecraft and institutional strategy.
