Hi all, really happy to join the Wild Hub.

I have been working in conservation for the last 25 years, and the last 15 from International NGOs. Currently I work for BirdLife International Americas Secretariat as Head of Conservation for the Region.

I am a passionate conservationists. I have developed a series of skills that include: excellent organisational and prioritisation competence; strong leadership and management skills; proactive attitude and ability to take initiative and work independently. Currently I am doing an MBA which has given me the opportunity to apply private sector standards to the work we do as an NGO, which has been a really interesting process.

Working at Rare (2012 . 2018) I developed experience in co-design, design thinking, human centred design, project design, project management and project evaluation. Skills that I apply in my current job too.

Lately I have been designing a capacity building program for mid-level conservationists at BirdLife (including its partners organizations) that was launched today.

Finally I am good at fundraising, and currently I am part of the fundraising regional team at Birdlife.

I am looking forward to be in touch with all of you.
