Biography
I'm graduated in Environmental Sciences and Technology from the University of Porto and master in Agronomic Engineering from the same institution. I am also a graduate student in Agronomy and also in GIS applied to agroforestry and environmental resources, areas that I have been passionate about since I was very young given my strong agricultural family history. From my most recent professional experience, I highlight two professional positions. As part of my master's dissertation, I had the opportunity to carry out an innovative field trial in a study area of about 1ha, where the production, adaptation and use of soybean cultivation in the agrarian region of Entre Douro e Minho was evaluated. On the other hand, more recently, I had the opportunity to be a Local Technician at the 2019 Agricultural Census. This position gave me the opportunity to develop knowledge in the scope of data collection and analysis of agricultural holdings in the agrarian region of Entre Douro e Minho. Aware of that, in 2018, I created the digital platform "A Cientista Agrícola" that I maintain until today. In this digital project, with a clear mission to communicate about agriculture and related subjects, I developed communication, writing and content creation and management skills on social networks. Currently, i'm Laboratory Technician in LeguCon project that has established a consortium of stakeholders, including participatory farmers, for the promotion of legumes production. In 2021, I started my Biotechnology PhD.
