I’m a field ecologist with research interests in vegetation ecology, historical ecology and biological invasions.
Currently, I am a postdoctoral fellow at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC), in Brazil. I’m working on a LTER (Long Term Ecological Research) project, dealing with the effects of fire and grazing on biodiversity and ecosystem services.
I am a collaborator at the laboratories of Human Ecology and Ethnobotany (ECOHE), Laboratory of Diversity and Conservation (divEcon) and Lab on Ecology of Biological Invasions, Management and Conservation (LEIMAC) at UFSC.
