Profile: PhD in Statistics and Computation, Probability and Statistics (Univ. Lisbon, 1992) with PhD Thesis “Statistical Inference in Extreme Value Models”, Habilitation Degree of Statistics and Operations Research, (Univ. Lisbon, 2004), past-Coordinator of Center of Statistics and Applications of University of Lisbon (2006-2009), Elected Member of International Statistical Institute, Member of Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics and Probability, Portuguese Statistical Society and Portuguese Mathematical Society.

Her research interests are in the areas of extreme value theory and statistical inference for extreme values, both under a semi-parametric and parametric setups.
