I am a dedicated physics engineer specializing in integrated Photonics. Throughout my academic journey, I gained valuable expertise in photonics, electronics, and semiconductors. My master's research focused on optimizing PIC components and reducing footprints for telecommunications applications.As a research fellow in the Integrated Photonics group at IT Aveiro, I honed my testing abilities for PICs and gained experience in setting up testing setups while working collaboratively with a team.My aspiration is to apply the skills acquired during my academic journey in a business environment, making a positive impact on the world. Additionally, I aim to deepen my understanding of the PIC ecosystem, conduct research, and identify opportunities for a future PhD in Photonics.I believe nothing beats hard work.
