My background is mainly in species conservation, education and capacity exchange. I researched mother-young interactions in gorillas and chimpanzees, in captivity and the wild. After that, I worked for three years in Indonesia, where I developed and implemented youth ambassador and community engagement programmes on local and regional scales. I co-founded WildHub, a community of nature conservation professionals, in 2020 and work as their Community Lead. I am furthermore on the Advisory Board of the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE) at the University of Kent where I obtained my PhD on capacity development for conservation in 2022.
I am a Malawian, a graduate from the University of Malawi, a passionate young climate activist, a founder and executive director of a nascent environmental leadership organization, Resilient-Gen. I have profound experience in community mobilization, community engagement not to mention resource mobilization. I love all things green!!

As Dr. Calista, I've practiced veterinary care for over a decade, focusing on small animals. My passion for pangolin conservation spans five years, where I've dedicated myself to safeguarding these gentle creatures. At Saintmarks Animal Rescue Foundation, I merge my expertise in veterinary medicine with wildlife protection. My journey, from healing paws to defending pangolins, is a testament to our duty to preserve nature's wonders.

Hi, my background is in website design and digital marketing but my interests have always been in animal welfare, sustainability and conservation. Recently I have been looking for opportunities to transfer the skills I have into the conservation and ecology sectors.
