About Me

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Plant Ecology Research Lab at EPFL. I am broadly interested in plant ecophysiology and climate change. Currently, I am interested in how hot droughts affect temperate trees, particularly in terms of leaf thermal dynamics and photosynthesis.

Earlier in 2024, I graduated with my PhD in Biology from the Feeley Lab at the University of Miami. For my dissertation I used a plant functional traits approach to investigate the acclimation of subtropical and tropical trees to elevated temperatures along steep thermal gradients.
