Highly skilled geo-ecologist with doctorate degree, currently working as a researcher at UQAM. Expertise in Isotope Hydro(geo)logy, I utilize various stable and radioactive isotopes to analyze process dynamics at the regional catchment scale. With extensive field and laboratory expertise, analyzing travel time distributions, degradation processes, and interactions. I also possess experience in academic education, presentations at international conferences, and business development.
