I am an Ecologist by training. My research interests have focused on : Relations between protected areas and local communities; Wildlife conservation; Community Building; Environmental governance ; Conflict management ; Climate change.
My focus is on using modern marketing practices and technology to amplify the impact of sustainable businesses and conservation organizations. I have a unique blend of experience as both a field biologist and as a marketer for mission-based businesses and nonprofits.
I'm looking to grow my network and new opportunities to learn, teach, and collaborate so that we can continue to make this planet a more livable place for all species. I'm especially interested in the intersection of tech and wildlife conservation, and would love to initiate conversations with others in that space.
I'm a children's book author with a focus on creating books that ignite passion and curiosity for wildlife and wild places in young readers. "If we care about animals, we'll want to protect them." I'm looking to connect with professionals who are studying and/or are actively helping in advancing wildlife conservation efforts in general. I am also a beginning nature photographer with a passion for capturing the unique personalities of each animal I see. (That's the goal, anyhow!) I've had a lifelong passion for animals and want to learn all I can and share what I can with young readers, hopefully inspiring the next wave of conservationists, naturalists, scientists, etc.!
