I am currently a postdoc at COSIC, KU Leuven, where I also completed my PhD in 2025 under the supervision of Nigel Smart and Svetla Nikova. My research interests revolve around the applications and practical aspects of multi-party computation, as well as the interactions between MPC and other PETs, namely zero-knowledge proofs and homomorphic encryption.

From March to August 2023, I did a research internship at Nokia Bell Labs in Antwerp, where I worked on delegating the computation of zero-knowledge proofs.

From July 2020 to May 2023, I was involved in the SNIPPET project, where I worked on the design of privacy-preserving market mechanisms for the p2p electricity market using multi-party computation.

Previously, I was a research assistant at Instituto de Telecomunicações, working on quantum primitives for MPC protocols. Before that, I received my MSc in Applied Mathematics and my BSc in Physics from Instituto Superior Técnico in Lisbon, Portugal.
