I’m naturally respectful and patient. That helps me establish good contacts with the First Nations, and our exchanges bring me a lot of knowledge. I feel like a student! I also like knowing that my work can help preserve knowledge that is being lost today, because of biocultural erosion.

I’m super-curious, and I’ve always been interested in trying to understand the world around us. I do that by conducting research, but also by travelling, another of my passions. My work lets me ask and answer questions – to satisfy my curiosity! I feel privileged.

As a researcher in plant ecology, I am interested in the ecology and evolution of symbiotic relationships between plants and their microbiota.

I’m naturally curious. Research lets me be creative in approaching a problem and looking for a solution. I also feel like I’m always learning. Working with students forces me to stay up to date. I gain new knowledge by talking with other researchers, and it keeps me humble.

It’s hard to find anything more fascinating than research. It’s an endless world of questions, and I want to find answers to all of them! I equate it with problem solving and I like finding the tools that can help me solve these questions.

I’m really interested in starting with a question and using different means to try to find the answer. I like being able to interpret how our actions affect other organisms, both plants and animals. I’m sociable and dynamic and like working as part of a team.
