I am a graduate student pursuing an MSc in Forestry: Forest Biological Sciences with a minor in Botany at the University of the Philippines Los Baños. As a licensed Forester, I have been conducting research on biodiversity conservation, forest inventory, monitoring and assessment, and impact evaluation. I have published several articles relevant to my field and presented my scholarly works in local and international conferences. I am honored to have received awards and scholarship grants that recognize my dedication and excellence. Besides my roles as a researcher and forester, I am passionate about youth leadership and have actively served in various organizations.
