BAFurtado/README.md

Hi there, I'm a researcher working with public policy and complex systems.

Originally trained as an architect, I became a geographer, then an economist. Nowadays, I mostly build computational models—especially agent-based models (ABMs)—to understand complex social, economic, and spatial systems and explore the effects of public policies.

Here you can find my open-source work, including PolicySpace and PolicySpace3. I'm particularly interested in policy modelling, simulation, data, and computational social science, and I'm always happy to connect with potential collaborators.

🔭 My main keywords are Agent-Based Modelling, Complex Systems, and Public Policy.

I have also written a novel about violence against women, as a newbie pantser: Linger No Longer.
