Environmental engineer from the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid with an M.Sc. in terrestrial ecology from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). Since autumn 2021 I am a doctoral researcher at CREAF and the UAB. My area of expertise and research focuses on anthropogenic alterations of nutrient cycling.

My research aims to unravel human-caused changes in nutrient cycles and the consequences they have on food security, human health and ecosystems. To do this, I work with global databases with the highest possible temporal resolution of different anthropogenic inputs of nutrients, such as inorganic fertilisers.
