About
Research-oriented environmental scientist with a solid foundation in dendrochronology, stable isotope analysis, and field-based ecological monitoring. Seven years of teaching experience with proven skills in experimental design, data analysis, and laboratory workflows. Currently completing an MSc in Environmental Science with a thesis that merges tree ring chronologies and δ^13C / δ^18O analyses to assess drought effects on oak forests. Seeking a funded PhD position in dendroclimatology, hydrogeology, or biogeochemical cycling.
