Scientific interests

I'm interested in understanding the interconnected fields of taxonomy and biodiversity analysis. This I believe to be the key in properly protecting and managing biodiversity for the future generations to use and enjoy. I use phylogenetics, next-generation sequencing, bioinformatics, geographical information systems (GIS) and distribution modeling to address challenging and difficult questions in these fields. I am interested in a broad spectrum of species; from vascular plants to vertebrates.

Teaching and tutoring

I supervise and help Master students on projects related to my scientific interests and competense, such as, distribution modeling and bioinformatics. Furthermore, I have taught in the following courses:

Plant conservation (BIOS5219/BIO9219)
Biogeography and biodiversity (BIOS5214/BIO9230)

BSc in Biology at Universidad de las Americas Puebla (UDLAP) (2012-2017)
MSc in Natural resourses management with an specialization in Biology at Norwegian university of Science and Technology (NTNU) (2017-2019)

Positions held

Intern Zookeeper - Africam Safari herpetological department (2015)
Representatives Officer -UiODoc Board Member (2020-2021)
