Short-bio: I am a passionate Remote Sensing scientist who is constantly investigating how various anthropogenic pressures are affecting ecosystems and biodiversity. Since the beginning of my scientific career, I have been involved in environmental sciences and remote sensing. My key strength is the combination of my endless curiosity and my strong analytical and problem-solving skills. Throughout my scientific career, I have developed several competencies including excellent organisational, management and communication skills while developing research using cutting-edge remote sensing techniques. I truly believe that complex environmental problems require collaboration and inter-disciplinary skills to be solved efficiently and with the use of a holistic approach. Therefore, I am committed to excellence and to establishing effective partnerships and diverse international collaborations. Through my professional trajectory I have gained extensive international experience with a year internship in the USA during my Ph.D. (Oregon State University), three years as a Royal Society Newton International Fellow in the UK, one year as a research visitor at the University of Helsinki, in Finland, and currently, I hold a postdoctoral position at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, in Germany. The broader focus of my activities as a scientist has been the development and implementation of new approaches to infer the climate sensitivity of Amazonian forests, land-use and environmental changes, and carbon accounting to support conservation and policy efforts.
