Short CV

BSc in Geology, National & Kapodistrian University of Athens (Specialization: Dynamic, Tectonic & Applied Geology) (1997-2002)
MSc in Water Resources Science and Technology, National Technical University of Athens (Specialization: Hydrology and Environmental Management of Water Resources) (2002-2004)
PhD student in the Department of Geography, School of Environment, Geography and applied Economics, Harokopio University of Athens (2018-today)

During the period 2004-2010 she self-employed as freelancer geologist with main activity geological, hydrogeological and environmental research and water resources management studies. From 2010 she holds a position as a research associate in Institute of Marine Biological Resources and Inland Waters, Hellenic Centre for Marine Research.

She has research interests on hydrology and water balance, water management, hydrogeology and groundwater, surface water and groundwater quality – environmental monitoring, hydrological – hydrogeological -water quality modeling, vulnerability – flood hazard – erosion modeling and GIS applications.She has participated in (17) national and international projects.

She has contributed with (14) papers in peer-reviewed journals, (1) book chapter, participated in (22) national or international conferences and co-authored in (18) technical reports.
