Plants, curiosity, and the natural world are the ingredients in my research. I am a lab coordinator. My specialities include systematics and evolution of flowering plants with a focus on grasses, Iberian flora, threatened plants, and medicinal plants. My current research projects include Barcode, Pooides, Flora Iberica, Grassmodels, risk models and conservation, and VIPAs. I am a teaching graduate and hold Master's and Doctoral programs in Advanced Studies in Botany, Environmental Risk, and Active Learning.
