CV AgathaSantos

“I have been working with data analysis for at least ten years.
My main role during this period was the study of the

ecology of benthic marine macroinvertebrates and, secondarily, demersal organisms, having worked in different
institutions, i.e. environmental consultancy, university, and public sectors.
I have experience in the stages of Environmental Impact Studies, in the preparation of a Basic Environmental Plan,
data analysis, field work, coordination and team management, working independently and with different demands
simultaneously.”
