‘Science, for me, gives a partial explanation for life. In so far as it goes, it is based on fact, experience and experiment.’

Hello! I am a doctoral student at UC Berkeley in the Environmental Science, Policy, and Management Program. My research is focused on understanding changing drylands, specifically under the contexts of soils and microbial ecology. As an ecologist, I believe that science is a powerful tool that can be used to uncover any questions we might have, especially when is comes to the complexity of our global ecosystems.
