I have worked with data across a wide range of agricultural systems in different biogeographical regions as Montreal (Canada), central Mexico, Malaysia, Bangladesh, and Spain (both intensive greenhouse production as well as extensive/perennial cropping systems). This broad geographical experience has allowed me to explore how landscape structure, management intensity, and ecological context interact to influence biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and crop health.

My goal as a researcher is to contribute to the design of sustainable and diversified agricultural landscapes in which productive farming and biodiversity conservation coexist, promoting ecological integrity and long-term resilience.

My research focuses on how landscape structure shapes ecological interactions within agricultural systems, with particular emphasis on multitrophic interactions involving plant abiotic stress, plant viruses, herbivorous insect vectors, and beneficial arthropods acting as natural enemies in crops.
