About


Currently working as postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Environmental Science and Technology (ICTA) at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB), where I have also worked at the Department of Geography (Research Group on Transport, Mobility and Territory (GEMOTT)). Previously, I worked as a researcher at the Barcelona Institute of Regional and Metropolitan Studies (Institut Metròpoli). I hold a PhD on urban cycling from the University of Amsterdam, having previously worked at a transport consultancy in London. My academic background combines geography and urban planning, having studied Geography at the University of Cambridge and undertaken a MSc in Transport and City Planning at the Bartlett School of Planning (UCL). My research focuses on the socio-spatial interactions between urban processes, mobility, and public space across geographical scales, combining both quantitative and qualitative approaches.
