I am a Biophysical Engineer and I hold an MSc in Spatial Planning and a Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences. I'm currently a Research Engineer in Geospatial Sciences and Technologies at IVAR - Research Institute for Volcanology and Risks Assessment, based at the University of the Azores (Portugal). I am also a collaborator of IERS (Island Environmental Risks & Society) at the Azorean Biodiversity Group and CE3C. My current research is especially focused on the development of geospatial applications, products, and indicators able to support decision-making on Natural Hazards' mapping and assessment, Spatial Planning, MAES (Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystem Services), and Coastal/Land Management in Islands.
