Agroforestry Coordinator 

Since my childhood, I have been fascinated by the rainforest: its secrets, its vitality and the extraordinary diversity of its flora and fauna. This early connection inspired me to study biology and helped me to understand that the preservation of biodiversity is only possible through collaboration with the people who live in these areas, especially the farmers.

For this reason, I have focused my training on developing methods to optimize agricultural production and on the valorization of local products to create added value. In this way, I want to contribute to strengthening the farmers' economy and at the same time promote the protection of the rainforest as a path to prosperity and sustainability.
