I am PhD Candidate in Urban Studies at ISCTE – University Institute of Lisbon and researcher at DINÂMIA’CET – IUL and at the Institute of Sociology of the University of Porto. I completed my degree in Sociology at University of Porto, with a project about the relationship between cultures and territories. I worked as a researcher at Institute of Sociology of the University of Porto on projects developed in the field of Sociology of Culture and Sociology of Music and also at a NGO, on projects related to youth. I am currently developing a PhD project entitled "Do It Together Again: networks, flows and spaces in building music careers in the Portuguese indie scene", funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology through the individual doctoral fellowship SFRH/BD/101849/2014. The project focuses on the processes of building DIY musical careers and their connection with urban space and local cultural policies in the metropolitan areas of Lisbon and Porto.
