About

Born and raised in Northern Portugal, I describe myself professionally as a thorough, efficient and creative pattern-seeker and problem-solver. I much enjoy reading Fiction, I'm especially interested in topics such as Astronomy, Aesthetics, Logic, Psychiatry and Poetry, and, from both a geographic and anthropological perspective, I'm quite fond of certain regions and nations, namely Japan, Iceland, New England, Greenland, and Scotland.
