I am currently pursuing a PhD within the PigNovation project, which focuses on future housing systems for pigs. In my role, I combine research with teaching and find it especially rewarding to interact with students.

Presentation

With a background as an agronomist and a Master’s degree in Animal Science, I have a strong interest in agriculture, particularly pig production. My research is driven by a desire to understand how different housing systems influence animal behaviour, welfare, and production outcomes. I am passionate about supporting pig producers and ensuring that scientific knowledge can be translated into practical, on-farm solutions.
