I am a sociologist and researcher at the Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas, Medioambientales y Tecnológicas (CIEMAT) and a PhD candidate in Sociology at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB).

My research focuses on the social dimensions of energy and climate change, particularly energy poverty, energy vulnerability, environmental inequalities, and climate adaptation. Within the LIVEN project, my work addresses the social and distributional dimensions of energy vulnerability, examining how socioeconomic circumstances, housing conditions, everyday energy practices, and institutional arrangements influence households’ access to essential energy services and their capacity to meet energy needs. I also explore the implications of these inequalities for energy and social policy.

My doctoral research examines the social and health implications of extreme heat, with particular attention to inequalities in heat exposure, access to cooling, and household adaptation strategies. I explore how housing characteristics, socioeconomic resources, and everyday practices shape people’s experiences of heat and their capacity to adapt, connecting these processes to wider debates on energy poverty and climate justice.

My work combines quantitative and qualitative research methods—including survey analysis, statistical modelling, spatial analysis, and qualitative fieldwork—to investigate the social mechanisms underlying energy and environmental inequalities and to help inform more equitable public policies.
