I graduated with a Master's degree in cultural anthropology and ethnology, specializing in environmental and disaster anthropology and more-than-human ontologies. I did two months of fieldwork in Chile in 2021, investigating the local relationship with water, fog and fog collection. My PhD project aims to contribute to current climate change research by considering plants and forests as the fulcrum for a better relationship with the planet.

Plants can be intriguing subjects for ethnographic research. In the Anthropocene, it is crucial to rethink the idea of 'nature' as Western culture understands it, as a first step towards developing new sustainable policies. Drawing on anthropological and philosophical frameworks, my research explores the relations, ethics and politics of humans, plants and forests.
