Profile

In June 2026 I completed the Cybersecurity Analyst course at the Academia Nacional de CiberSegurança: 544 hours, a final grade of 18/20 and 29 modules ranging from networks and operating systems to SIEM/SOC, intrusion detection, malware analysis, digital forensics, cryptography, ISO 27001 and GDPR.

I come to cybersecurity with a degree in Information Systems and Technology Management and six and a half years at the Portuguese Air Force Staff, developing and maintaining information systems in an environment where traceability, confidentiality and procedure are not optional.

Over the past four years I have managed suppliers, stock, accounting and the online presence of my own business, in Barcarena. I live in Vale Covo, in the Bombarral municipality.
