I earned my Licentiate degree in Biological Sciences from Centro Universitário das Faculdades Integradas de Ourinhos (UNIFIO, Ourinhos/SP) and my bachelor's degree in Ecology from São Paulo State University Julio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP, Rio Claro) in 2011 and 2019, respectively. During my undergraduate studies, I worked on projects related to ecotoxicology and mutagenesis using plants and cell culture as bioindicators. I also collaborated with studies about community ecology using a host-parasite model in a mesocosmos system to test host factors that influence parasite dispersal. I finished my Master of Science in Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity at São Paulo State University (UNESP, Rio Claro) in 2023, as part of Côrtes' Lab and the ReSeeD Project. My research included investigating which functional traits of fruits and seeds make up the phenotypic profile of animal-dispersed species and how they favor seed dispersal in emerging ecological communities. As a PhD Student at the same institution, I'm interested in pollination and flower-to-fruit conversion in the community assembly during ecological succession.
