Research Interests

Life Cycle Assessment

Biography

Graduated and PhD in Environmental Sciences, I am interested in the impact of human activities on the environment. As a postdoctoral researcher I specialised in the area of sustainable agriculture, and I have won extensive experience working in environmental consultancy within the area of environmental markets doing data management, data quality assurance, research for new methodologies and reporting. I am currently working using the Life Cycle Assessment methodology to quantify the environmental impact of agrifood products. The ultimate goal of my current research is to help improving the sustainability of agrifood systems.
