Academics

Escola da Avenida and Externato Delfim Ferreira was where I did my basic and high school education and picked Sciences and Technologies. These schools are located in a village called Riba D’Ave, in the north of Portugal.

I applied and got accepted to the Informatics and Computer Engineering course at the Faculty of Engineering University of Porto which was my 1st choice. I have a MSc in this degree. I finished with a GPA of 15 (0-20) and in my MSc’s thesis, I made a Software Library for Stream-Based Recommender Systems, called increc whose implementation and report document were graded with a 19 mark.

FEUP

Erasmus (2019): In my 5th year of college I decided to take part in the Erasmus student exchange program. Technical University of Ostrava, Czech Republic was the University of my choice. There, I took courses such as Methods of Analysis of Data, Methods of Analysis of Textual Data, Parallel Computing, Biologically Inspired Algorithms and Digital Image Processing.

English Certifications (2008-2012)

I registered in a English Institute in Vila Nova de Famalicão where I learned how to write, speak and listen to the english language and comprehend it better. It helped me get my First Certificate in English (FCE) which gets me at C1 level in English.

Online Courses (2020 - Now)

I’ve recently started taking online courses and started by using the Udemy platform.

The first course I’ve completed is named Machine Learning, Data Science and Deep Learning with Python by Frank Kane, which is a very useful practical, cut-to-the-chase course for everyone wanting to start and get an initial grasp in Machine Learning.
I’ve also completed Spark and Python for Big Data with Pyspark by Jose Portilla, which is a very simple course about using PySpark to tackle Machine Learning problems which use large quantities of data.
