What’s my Story?
I am PhD Candidate in Agronomy at University of California Davis.
I earned a Masters in Horticulture from Virginia Polytechnic
Institute and Bachelors degrees from the University of Maryland
and the Higher Agriculture School in Den Bosch, the Netherlands.
I’ve published in scientific journals and served as a volunteer
extension specialist with CNFA in Moldova. My technical skills
include greenhouse and open-field vegetable production, fruit and
nut crops with a specialization in nitrogen fertilizers.
