I'm originally from Puerto Tejada, Colombia. I received my B.S. degree in Biology in Universidad Icesi (Cali, Colombia) in 2018. Research Interest: Mountains have long shaped ecological and evolutionary patterns across diverse organisms, making them ideal landscapes for studying adaptation and diversification. My research focuses on unraveling the evolutionary complexities within mountainous regions, with particular attention to anole lizards—a neotropical genus marked by a distinctive flag-like dewlap. I am especially interested in how these species have evolved to adapt across the varying elevations of the Colombian Andes. In parallel, I bring extensive expertise in data analysis, visualization, and predictive modeling, leveraging large datasets to uncover patterns and inform interdisciplinary research. My research topics are listed below: 1) Evolutionary responses to climate change 2) Physiology, ecology, and behavior 3) Macroecology and macroevolution For more information do not hesitate to contact me.
