SUMMARY MSc graduate in Structural Engineering capable of undertaking complex assignments, meets tight deadlines and delivers superior performance. Fluent in English, specializing in Reinforcement and Rehabilitation, Steel and composite structures with practical knowledge in structural design and seismic performance evaluation; Currently working in an internship at Lisbon’s City Hall, taking part of the rehabilitation and reinforcement team which mission is the conservation of Lisbon’s historical buildings. Throughout the MSc I was an active member of Board of European Students of Technology (BEST) as part of the team organising engineering competitions at National and European level and organiser of exchange programs in Russia and Latvia. Last but not least, BEST team is made of highly motivated MSc students from challenging and distinctive engineering fields.

RELEVANT EXPERIENCE

CML – City Hall of Lisbon– Top reference city hall in Portugal � March 2015 – present Full time internship at rehabilitation and conservation office focussed on:

• On-site technical analysis and evaluation of buildings’ state of conservation, promotion and development of rehabilitation and reinforcement projects regarding historical buildings.

DUPLANO - Projeto e Obras de Engenharia Civil, Lda. � July 2011 – September 2011 Full time 3-month internship at consulting engineering office focussed on:

• Stability design projects. Construction site supervision. Planning of bill of quantities, measurements and estimated costs. This internship allowed me to explore distinctive areas of our craft.

EDUCATION

TÉCNICO LISBOA, University of Lisbon - #1 in Portugal according to Shanghai’s ARWU 2014 ranking

MSc in Civil Engineering – Structural Branch [Overall Grade: 14/20] Core competencies: Structure’s rehabilitation and reinforcement; Steel and composite structures; Seismic design and seismic performance evaluation. Master thesis under guidance of Professor Doctor Rita Bento: “Seismic Design and Assessment of Irregular 3-Storey Concentric Braced Steel Frame Buildings”. [Grade: 18/20] à Research work aimed at developing an improved force based design procedure for designing earthquake resisting steel structures focussed on steel concentric braced frames. Moreover an extensive non-linear static analysis and dynamic non-linear analysis was successfully completed to assess the seismic performance of the previously designed structures. Structure’s modelling and subsequent seismic performance evaluation was developed in non-linear analysis software OpenSees [developed @ University of California, Berkeley].

VOLUNTEERING AND RELEVANT SKILLS
