I am a PhD student at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, and also work at the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow, and Landscape Research (WSL), based in Zurich. I am here to learn, contribute, and network with professionals of similar research interests. My research focuses on combining complementarity and connectivity principles into biodiversity conservation designs using spatial prioritization techniques. I look forward to connecting with colleagues and experts working in these areas to exchange ideas and collaborate.
Thank you all

I am a passionate conservation and environmental scientist pursuing a Ph.D. at ETH Zurich. I am a team player deeply committed to biodiversity conservation, climate change mitigation, and using scientific inquiry to drive innovative solutions for our planet's environmental challenges.
My research aims to address conservation issues in the cross-realm context. I am developing new spatial methods for identifying priority areas for conservation that are both complementary and connected, assessing the vulnerability of species to climate change, and identifying adaptation strategies
In the short term, I am committed to enhancing cross-realm biodiversity conservation through innovative research and collaborations. Long-term: I envision shaping global policies, building partnerships, and empowering communities toward sustainable practices.
