Bridging science and policy to protect fragile ecosystems and the communities who depend on them
What I Bring
I bring over two decades of international experience working on issues such as environmental crime, transboundary conservation, and post-conflict ecological recovery. My work is rooted in the belief that environmental integrity and human dignity are deeply interconnected. I specialise in building partnerships across regions and sectors, turning science into action through storytelling, co-creation, and system-aware strategies.
My Focus Areas
In My Own Words
I believe that lasting change starts when we acknowledge the wisdom in local voices, recognise the courage of risk takers, and design solutions that honour both people and nature.
