1. What inspired you to pursue a career in agriculture?

Agriculture sits at the intersection of food security, environmental responsibility, and human welfare. It is a sector where innovation has a direct impact on both people and the planet. My path moved toward BioAg because it represents a new way of thinking—working with nature by understanding plant physiology and ecological balance.

2. How have you navigated a traditionally male-dominated field?

Early in my career, I had to work harder to demonstrate credibility in technical environments. However, the sector is evolving. Competence speaks for itself, and I focused on building strong technical knowledge and understanding the realities of farmers. Diversity is a driver of innovation; different perspectives lead to better problem-solving.

Exciting Innovations: Plant Intelligence

We are decoding the biochemical language plants use to communicate. This has led to NeoPrime®, the world’s first technology capable of converting plant signals into stable formulations that prepare plants before they face environmental challenges. We also launched Veganic Food Care to promote healthier nutrition based on fruits and vegetables produced under Integrated Pest Management (IPM) systems.

3. What advice do you have for young women in the sector?

• Build strong technical curiosity—understand how plants, soils, and microorganisms interact.
• Stay close to the field—farmers’ realities are the best teachers.
• Believe in your perspective—new voices are essential to shaping the future of agriculture.

4. What are your aspirations for the next decade?

I hope to see more women in scientific leadership, agronomy, and executive decision-making. Addressing global challenges like climate change and soil degradation requires diverse perspectives and collaborative leadership. At Veganic, we want to position biological agriculture as the new standard for responsible food production.
