Biography
Since 2006, I have been part of ISEG, University of Lisbon, where I serve as an Assistant Professor and contribute to research at ADVANCE/ISEG Research. I earned a PhD in Management with a focus on Business Strategy and Entrepreneurship from ISCTE-IUL, and a Master in Finance and a Bachelor in Management from ISEG.
With previous professional experience in the private and public sectors, as an entrepreneurship and innovation scholar, I focus on entrepreneurial cognition and innovation management. My most relevant publications include the International Journal of Entrepreneurial Behavior & Research, the Journal of Small Business and Enterprise Development, the International Entrepreneurship and Management Journal, and the Journal of Enterprising Communities: People and Places in the Global Economy. I also frequently collaborate with other international academic journals and international conferences committees as an invited reviewer and I have served on the Editorial Board of Elsevier's Sustainable Technology and Entrepreneurship since 2025.
As a lecturer and dissertation/thesis supervisor, my goal is to instill critical and informed thinking for better decision-making and responsible citizenship.
