Biography
My research focuses on the use of theoretical and quantitative ecology to understand insect dynamics in agricultural and forest ecosystems. I enjoy generating new ideas and devising computational models to support IPM (Integrated Pest Management) implementation. Specific fields of interest include computational modeling, biomathematics, quantitative ecology, data science, GIS, integrated pest management and insect ecology.
