In 2012, I completed a PhD at NOVA FCSH on “Heidegger and the Phenomenology of Human Solitude”. From 2012 to 2017, I was an integrated member of the IEF R&D Research Unit at the Faculty of Arts and Humanities of the University of Coimbra. As a member of this Institute, I participated in its strategic project, funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology – FCT (PEst-C/FIL/UI0010/2013). I also carried out postdoctoral research on “Freedom and Responsibility in Stoic Thought”, for which I received funding from the Institute and the Fondation Hardt pour l’étude de l’antiquité classique in Geneva. The funding from the Institute allowed me to conduct a research stay at Utrecht University, where I worked with leading scholars on Stoicism (Keimpe Algra, Teun Tieleman and Jaap Mansfeld).

From 2017 to 2018, I was an integrated member of the CFUL R&D Research Unit, where I worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the project “Experimentation and Dissidence”, funded by the FCT (PTDC/MHC-FIL/1416/2014). As a member of the project team, I carried out research on Nietzsche’s and Foucault’s reception of Antiquity, and actively contributed to the organisation of several international conferences and the editing of several conference proceedings on the subject of experimentation and dissidence in philosophy and the arts.

Since early 2019, I have been an integrated member of IFILNOVA R&D Research Unit. As a member of IFILNOVA, I participate in its strategic project, funded by the FCT, and carry out research on ancient and contemporary philosophy within the CultureLab. Also at IFILNOVA, as a member of the Lisbon Nietzsche Group, I was part of the team working on the project “Nietzsche on Nihilism and the Value of Art”, funded by the FCT (PTDC/FER FIL/30172/2017). In the context of the Lisbon Nietzsche Group and the Ars vivendi Research Group, I developed a project on “Greek Pessimism as a Form of Nihilism in the Young Nietzsche”, for which I received funding from the FCT in the context of the CEEC-Individual programme to work as an Assistant Researcher at IFILNOVA. In 2022, together with António de Castro Caeiro, I co-founded the Research Group on Ancient Philosophy, where I continued to carry out the project on Greek pessimism in Nietzsche and other research activities related to the reception of ancient philosophy in modernity. Since 2025, I am Tenured Assistant Professor in the Philosophy Department at NOVA FCSH.
