I am a landscape architecture researcher and lecturer whose work explores the relationship between planting design, ecological performance, and human experience in contemporary landscapes. My research integrates field observation, plant typology studies, and evidence-based design to understand how planted systems, urban microclimates, and green infrastructure can support resilient, adaptive, and community-oriented environments. I am particularly interested in how plant selection, spatial composition, and maintenance strategies influence long-term ecological outcomes in public spaces. In parallel with research, I am actively engaged in educational innovation, developing learning experiences that connect students with real-world contexts, professional networks, and critical thinking in design. I collaborate with practitioners, public institutions, and professional associations to strengthen the dialogue between academia and practice, contributing to juries, panels, workshops, and interdisciplinary projects. My broader goal is to advance a research culture that remains both scientifically rigorous and grounded in the challenges of contemporary landscape practice. I value transparent methodology, collaborative inquiry, and approaches that integrate ecological, cultural, and social dimensions. Through my work, I aim to support the development of sustainable landscapes, informed decision-making, and a deeper understanding of how designed environments shape everyday life
