About

About me ...

Hi! My name is Luís and I'm a Software Engineer from Braga, Portugal.
Currently, I'm pursuing a Dual Ph.D. in Software Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University and University of Porto.

My research is focused on Machine Learning for Computer Vision and Automatic Programming and I'm being advised by Dr. Jonathan Aldrich, Dr. Rui Abreu and Dr. Vincent Hellendoorn.

My vision is the development of tools for improving developers productivity, reducing the time they spend coding their ideas.

Feel free to contact me anytime to talk about interesting stuff!

I like to spend time improving myself and my relationship with others.
I love traveling, especially to nature destinations and places where I can get to know new cultures!
