My name is Carol Meritxell Molina Monteleón, and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in Environmental Sciences at the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, specializing in the assessment and management of natural resources. I hold a degree in Environmental Engineering from the same university, from which I graduated in 2022. During my university years, I became particularly interested in the soil and composting field, participating in research projects related to soil formation processes, bioremediation and composting and my undergraduate thesis focused on composting. After graduating, I worked in the environmental and waste management field at a food services company, later, I worked at an aquarium as a water quality analyst and was responsible for life support systems (water treatment systems). Although these jobs were not in my primary area of interest, I gained valuable experience in project management, water treatment system design and problem-solving. After exploring various topics, I developed an interest in soil and agriculture. Currently, I am working on my master's thesis related to soil, coffee cultivation, and sustainability. Working on this topic has provided me with new knowledge and skills in agriculture, fieldwork, soil physical and chemical sampling and analysis, plant sampling and analysis, soil microbiological sampling and analysis, statistical analysis, and the development of interdisciplinary projects.
