About Me:

Mi trabajo doctoral se enfoca en el rol de interacciones socio-ecológicas en el rendimiento de parques urbanos ecológicos. Anteriormente he estudiado la percepción de beneficios de parques ecológicos en Puerto Rico. Mis estudios en ecología incluyen polinización de heliconias por aves en el bosque lluvioso (Yunque, PR), frugivoría por monos patas y rhesus (Sierra Bermeja, PR), reproducción sexual en cinco especies de tomatillos (Physalis spp., Solanaceae) (Virginia, EE.UU.) y el mantenimiento de dos estrategias alimentarias en la alevilla Symmetrischema lavernaella (Gelechiidae) (Virginia, EE.UU.).

My doctoral research is focused on the role of social-ecological interactions in the landscape performance of urban ecological parks. Previously, I have also studied the perception of benefits of ecological parks in Puerto Rico. My studies in ecology include bird pollination of heliconias in the rainforest (Yunque, PR), frugivory by patas and rhesus monkeys (Sierra Bermeja, PR), sexual reproduction in five tomatillo species (Physalis spp., Solanaceae) (Virginia, USA), and the maintenance of alternative feeding strategies in the moth Symmetrischema lavernaella (Gelechiidae) (Virginia, USA).
