I am an experienced biologist with a Master of Science degree and 16 years of international experience in natural resource management, forest management and restoration, nature-based solutions, climate change, human rights, traceability and capacity building within the agriculture, forestry, cattle ranching, and conservation sectors. I am skilled in Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL), adaptive management, GIS, and remote sensing. I have a proven track record of leading multidisciplinary teams and successfully negotiating with various stakeholders, including the public and private sectors, decision-makers, and local communities. As a visionary individual, I am deeply passionate about implementing landscape-scale initiatives that strike a balance between environmental, social, financial, and productive strategies, fostering nature restoration and regeneration.
