Hi there!

Welcome to my website :)

My name is Ricardo Rocha and I’m 22 years old. I’m from Ponte de Lima 🇵🇹 and I’m currently living in Zurich 🇨🇭

I am passionate about making processes work better, from everyday routines to complex systems. I am always looking for smarter ways of solving problems and love learning from that journey.

Currently, I’m doing an internship on the Operations Research & Air Traffic Magament team at SWISS, where I get to apply my passion for improving operations in aviation. Alongside that, I’m pursuing a MSc in Aerospace Engineering (Operations and Environment) at TU Delft 🇳🇱

Outside of aviation, I try to keep life simple and enjoy the little things, whether it’s a random chat on the bus, a walk around the neighbourhood, or drinks with friends. I usually say that “life is as simple as you want it to be,” and I try to live by that. I value balance between mental and physical well-being, and I try to live that through everyday choices.

On this website you’ll find my Résumé, a selection of Projects I’ve worked on, and a Blog where I occasionally share thoughts on optimisation, aviation, books I’ve enjoyed or truly any other topic I fell like sharing!

I know that realistically not many people will read my articles, but if you do stumble upon one, I hope you find it interesting :)

Made with ❤️
