As a vocational meteorologist I have dedicated my entire career to this discipline, starting through an environmental sciences degree, followed by a master’s degree in meteorology. I have completed my background through several specialized courses, self-learning and meteorology NGO’s collaborations. I have worked in weather forecasting, field meteorology and research in the Mediterranean area mainly. Throughout the years it has accumulated experience in the disciplines of meteorology in general and adverse weather in particular, climatology, climate change and adaptation to climate change. As a meteorologist I used to develop ad-hoc weather forecasts for many sectors, due to the professional experience as a storm chaser, I have also acquired background in interpreting meteorological models to develop professional tasks of adverse weather forecasting in several fields. Additionally, I used to work on the design and assessment of the quality of Early Warning System (EWS) forecasts and their application in many different sectors (infrastructure, natural hazards or agriculture among others). Furthermore, I have experience working in collaboration with other research teams or end users, with special emphasis on outreach, always trying to bridge the gap between meteorological and climatological science and end users.
