I am a biologist from the University of the Quindio. In my undergrade I realize a project of investigation in the Research and studies Center in Biodiversity and Biotechnology of the University of the Quindío (CIBUQ) in the field of conservation of forest seeds, in which I determined the potential of storage of Genipa americana, known popularly as Jagua, I established a protocol of managing and conservation of the germoplasm of this in which is indicated the optimal ripeness stage of the fruit for the collection seeds and realized an characterization morfometric of these. During 2008 and 2009 I realize a voluntary work of environmental interpretation in the Botanical Garden of the Quindio. In 2009 I took part as assesor in a project of school garden of the  waves-Quindio of Colciencias.
