After completing her degree in biology at Cardiff University (UK), she decided to specialize in biodiversity conservation.

The plant kingdom is an important base for most living beings, and she was particularly interested in understanding the relationship between plants and animals observed in nature. Her Masters’ thesis therefore consisted in investigating interactions between plants and their pollinators, in a botanical garden in Cornwall, for the conservation of native plants.

Having been born on an island (Canary Islands), the position of CDS Herbarium Assistant, working in plant research and conservation in the Galapagos Islands, was the perfect opportunity for her, a position she held from January 2020 to October 2021.
