She has a MA in History - specialization field in Ancient Civilizations of Asia and Middle East, and a BA in History, minor in Asian History, both by NOVA FCSH.

Presently, her research revolves around History of Religions, namely in what concerns the syncretic processes in ancient Western Asian religious systems, and the construction processes of divine figures. She is currently the PI of the exploratory project "WATERS- Amidst 'ever-flowing water' - tracing aquatic symbols and metaphors in Lower Mesopotamia religion (c. 3300 - 1800 BCE)" (CHAM, NOVA FCSH), which aims to trace and analyse the significances of these symbols and metaphors, by intertwining History of Religions and Environmental History, to enable a renewed examination on the human's relation with Nature, within this specific context. She was vice director of the Executive Committee of CHAM- Centre for Humanities where she also coordinated its Multimedia Area (2016-2024) and she also integrated the Editorial Board of one of CHAM's journals, Res Anquititatis - Journal of Ancient History (2018-2022).
