Teachers

I studyed economics at Stanford. I am most grateful to my thesis advisor, Paul Milgrom, for his help, support and guidance. At Stanford, I took classes in industrial organization from Tim Bresnahan and Roger Noll. The second member of my thesis committee was Mike Riordan. While I did not take any class from him, I learned a lot from Mike, some of which in the process of writing papers together. My decision to apply to Stanford was greatly influenced by the example and encouragement of Antonio Borges and Diogo Lucena, who were my teachers in Lisbon.

To all of you, thank you.
