Conservation Officer for the RSPB Cambs/Beds/Herts area, appointed 2020. Working outside of our reserves to achieve conservation outcomes and support the progress of our Fens Priority Landscape aims. We focus on a few key priority habitats (predominantly wetlands and farmland) to increase the amount of land well-managed for nature (following the Lawton Principles of bigger, better and more joined up) to improve the status of a number of key species associated with these habitats (e.g., Turtle Dove, Black-Tailed Godwits). We work within and around our reserves with landowners / land managers - work of which I currently facilitate the Ely Nature-Friendly Farming Zone, a cluster group of nature-friendly farmers, and engage with and provide advice to our Operation Turtle Dove stakeholders creating or maintaining habitat for Turtle Doves. 2019 graduate from Bangor University with a first class degree in Zoology with Conservation, MZool (Cons) and an MSc distinction in Conservation and Land Management (MSc).

I was born in Switzerland, but my current home is Costa Rica where I have been living with my wife and daughter for the last 25 years. Over two decades, I have developed extensive knowledge in sustainability topics along with a wide experience in designing, fundraising, and implementing conservation biology programs, biological corridors, project planning, implementation and monitoring, the leadership of inter-institutional alliances at the national, bi-national, regional and international level, as well as in the creation of protected areas. My areas of expertise include biodiversity, landscape issues, connectivity conservation, transboundary conservation, protected areas, and World Heritage Sites, sustainable development, wildlife, governance, and ecosystem conservation. I have worked for local and international NGOs and the academy, and define myself as a passionate conservation practitioner compromised with high standards of excellence, and a team player able to build strong intercultural relationships. I love trail running, photography, reading, cooking, traveling, and meeting new people from different cultural contexts. I am fluent in French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, with limited working proficiency in German and Indonesian. I am currently learning Mandarin and Arabic.
