👋Hello, I'm Rui.

Researching and building a multi-agent AI platform for education in which tutor and student agents collaborate to support learning. My work focuses on the framework for defining and orchestrating collaborative AI assistants, while my dissertation extends the platform with a verifiable-credentialing layer in which autonomous agents assess student competence and issue verifiable credentials anchored on blockchain, keeping them tamper-proof, student-owned, and portable beyond the issuing institution.

Conducting blockchain research and development within the BLOCKCHAIN.PT mobilizing agenda WP9. My work focuses on investigating blockchain-based certification solutions, building web platforms for credential management, and integrating digital wallet technologies.

Leading the team responsible for managing the association's visual identity. My role includes coordinating tasks, approving team outputs, and chairing meetings to ensure alignment with the association's goals. I actively participate in strategic decision-making processes to shape the direction, initiatives, and internal policies of the association.

Collaborated with a multidisciplinary team to develop an autonomous vehicle, managing both hardware assembly and software implementation to achieve key objectives, including path following and obstacle avoidance.
