Hi. I'm an engineer and product designer specializing in environmental monitoring and developmental infrastructure. I do design consulting for the World Bank, UNESCO, and other organizations and am interested in the application of technology in humanitarian and environmental contexts. My specialty is in wireless sensor networks which today is called IoT (Internet of Things). But basically, its just collecting senor data and communicating it and has been around for a long time. Luckily, that skill is useful in developing worlds, farms, and environmental and wildlife monitoring.
In my private life, I've started a communal farm called Hackerfarm with a community of techies that are interested in agriculture. I'm trying my hand at being a farmer and it's not easy. I also live on a mountain in the middle of a forest and see all types of amazing animals there. I'd like to meet them all.

I have been in charge of community development projects related to nature conservation for almost 10 years. I am interested in issues which ensure both the well-being of local people and the protection of the environment. The rights of local communities must be defended in the same way as the environment around them. Conservation must be for the communities, with the communities and not against the communities.
I am a passionate conservation practitioner, originally from Fiji. I am a trained coral reef ecologist with practical knowledge and experience in applied fisheries, resources management, stakeholder engagement, training and outreach, social sciences, gender, disability and social inclusion and coral reef conservation. I have worked for over a decade in various projects and with stakeholders in the Pacific. More recently, I switched jobs to work more on focused coral reef research and have started to engage more with international stakeholders in Southeast Asia. The new job also allowed me to engage more closely with projects that focus on Indigenous communities and local people in Australia and the Pacific region.
