I turn knowledge of microbial metabolic strategies into applied innovation
I'm an expert microbiologist to create innovative and sustainable food ad wellness solutions. My microbial knowledge spans the realms of environmental microbiology, environmental engineering, astrobiology, and food science. I've published widely and enjoy working across disciplines to turn complex science into practical, real-world applications.
Synthetic communities of microbes as a tool to understand ancient ecological interactions.
I present my recent work at the 2019 edition of the Astrobiology Scientific Conference #palaeoecomicrophysiology

My scientific knowledge, leadership, and spirituality converge in my projects. In them I contribute knowledge, I try to inspire other people to find their way.
I want to contribute to humanity and the planet earth on two levels: the internal (music, spirituality) and the external (how to live more sustainably, how to eat better to improve personal physical health and the planet, educate the public in scientific aspects)
internal
external
These are some of my published works.
