Biography

Agronomy Engineering student at the Central University of Ecuador with experience in managing Andean crops and applying sustainable agricultural practices. I have participated in research on fruit fly monitoring, integrated pest management, and in vitro propagation, as well as in the propagation of potato botanical seed, focusing on plant acclimatization and development under controlled conditions. Additionally, I have worked at the National Institute of Biodiversity (INABIO) in the entomology department and at Minchi floriculture, specializing in nutritional analysis and quality control of roses. I have done specialized FAO courses in agricultural trade and climate-smart cocoa. Currently, I am part of a research on the rapid multiplication of selected high-nutritional-value and drought-resilient botanical seed families, contributing to the strengthening of food security and agricultural sustainability.
