San Juan, Puerto Rico

I'm a recent Ph.D graduate from the University of Rhode Island in biology. My dissertation focused on the impacts of the green iguana as an invasive species in Puerto Rico. I have a new role as the program manager for the U.S Forest Service forest health program in Puerto Rico.

I look forward to learning about forest health in the conference as I continue to grow in my new role.
