• Master of Computer Sciences and Engineering, granted by the University of beira Interior - Portugal.
• Master of Computer Vision, Image and Multimedia, granted by the Polytech'Nice Engineering School - France.
being Signal Processing, more specifically source and channel coding, my specialization.

Currently I'm enrolling in a PhD program about Robust-Video Coding based in Multiple Description Video Coding with applications in noisy wireless channels. I've been working in this matter for quite some years now.

For a hobby, I'm a official developer at Gentoo Linux where my role is currently package maintenance; however I did some work with the embedded team in the past.
I'm also a developer and project lead of a small Linux distribution for TI OMAP-850 based-smartphones like the HTC Wizard, the Linux distribution is called linwizard.

Other than computers I like to wander within Nature, including hiking, camping and skiing. I also enjoy traveling and meeting different cultures.
