I am a chemist with expertise in water, waste water, soil, compost, sludge, and plant tissue analysis. I studied chemistry at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Greece and graduated in 2005 with a grade of 8. I hold a Master’s degree in Analytical Chemistry – Quality Control (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Department of Chemistry, Greece, 2008) and a Master’s degree in Green Chemistry and New Technologies (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Department of Chemistry, Greece, 2012). My PhD thesis was completed in June 2021 at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Faculty of Engineering, Greece, and it was about the treatment of liquid and solid wastes, especially the wastes of olive oil mills. For the past decade I have been working as a Chemist and Research associate at the Hellenic Agricultural Organization ‘’DEMETER’’, Soil and Water Resources Institute. My research interests are water and soil pollution, waste/wastewater management, composting, sustainable agriculture, and circular economy.
