He holds a degree in Environmental Sciences from the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

His main professional activity has been with the Network of Natural Parks of the Provincial Council of Barcelona, where he worked as an expert in biodiversity planning and analysis, and in recent years he has served as the head of conservation for this network of protected areas, located in a region facing significant pressures due to its high socioeconomic activity in the western Mediterranean.
