I am actively involved as a research associate in tropical sustainable agriculture projects focused on Robusta coffee systems in Central Africa in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, part of the Plants For People Research Team.

My research focuses on soil-plant interactions in tropical coffee agroforestry systems, using multi-element profiling approaches to trace nutrient dynamics and land-use history. This research is currently developed at the proposal stage as part of my application for a PhD fellowship.
