Since 2012, as an author, co-author, and co-editor, I have contributed to several books, articles in academic journals, and book chapters, all of which were subject to rigorous international peer review. Other published work includes articles in specialised magazines and digital platforms. As an author, I have written a bilingual book (English/Portuguese) exploring jazz within a specific Portuguese context. I served as editor, advisor, and author for the book Jazz and Totalitarianism, published as part of Routledge’s ‘Transnational Studies in Jazz’ series. In the same series, my second book, Encounters with Jazz on Television in Cold War Era Portugal: 1954–1974 (2022), remains the first and only comprehensive study of the cultural politics of jazz on television within a single country.

I co-authored Everyday Jazz Lives with freelance jazz photographer Brian Homer, which was derived from fieldwork conducted within Birmingham’s contemporary jazz scene. In terms of editorial experience, I am a co-founder and board member of the editorial team for the jazz research journal Jazz-Hitz (Musikene, Spain) (2018 to the present). As co-editor, I am a co-founder of the first collaborative book series (Portuguese-language) focused on Jazz in Brazil, featuring contributions from academics, artists and poets.

Currently, I am working on a monograph about the musical life of a Jamaican-born trombonist, composer, arranger, and educator, exploring his unique compositional process, which blends Mento, Pocomania, Austrian-German traditions, and jazz (publisher to be confirmed).
