HPF in environment and forestry management
Bachelor in environmental sciences
Since I was a child I was interested in our environment and its different dimensions (e.g. biodiversity, landscape, toponymy, geodiversity). Hence, I decided to study the Bachelor in Environmental Sciences where I learnt mainly about socio-ecosystems, environmental restoration and GIS. Nonetheless, I felt the need for a greater knowledge on other aspects, hence I studied the Higher Professional Training in Environment and Forestry management where I specialized in biodiversity and its threats.

Master in sustainable use of natural resources and ecosystem services
Master in development and sustainable local co-development
Bachelor in environmental sciences
My professional career has been focused in the management of environmental projects with national or international projects, mainly with Erasmus+ projects. Leveraging a social, economical, and environmental vision; I work to nurture initiatives which, not only integrate their local environment, but also boost innovation and social justice. Specifically, in the Solamb Association I look for promoting the relation between people and their environment.

Master in environment conservation and management
Bachelor in biology
The environment always took my attention, something that led me to study Biology in order to understand it better. Conscious of the importance of biodiversity loss, I specialized in the conservation and management of the environment. Furthermore, I have experience in microalgae identification for the study of its biodiversity and ecologic importance, as well as its potential use in the environment monitoring and conservation.

PhD in remote sensing
Master in geographic information technologies
Bachelor in environmental sciences
Two wolves have always lived inside me: one technological and the other environmental; unlike the proverb, I chose to feed them both. During my studies in environmental sciences, I was specially interested in the processes of the earth system and its spatio-temporal implications. Because of that, I specialized in remote sensing and spatial analysis. Inside the association, though not exclusively, I lead the more technological aspects.
