I am a motivated, adaptable and responsible professional, with a diverse interdisciplinary background with expertise in veterinary sciences with a special emphasis on wildlife medicine, business development, and project management.
I have over 18 years of experience in a wide range of working scenarios, with government, civil society and the private sector, across three different continents. This has helped me to develop good interpersonal and networking skills, especially within multi-stakeholder context, and a special capacity to handle sensitive political, cultural and religious issues with diplomacy.
I consider myself a self-starter with a practical approach to problem-solving, passionate for sustainable development, from biodiversity conservation and ecosystem health, to gender equality.
Hello there! Here Alejandro, a biologist and ethologist that wants to make a difference working on conservation. My interest in animals has always been present and that is why I want to dedicate my life to work with them. I love to travel and to explore new places. Basically, I like to learn new things from everyone so I am really comfortable while working in a group.

Kerryn Morrison
Senior Manager: Africa, International Crane Foundation/Endangered Wildlife Trust Partnership
I am currently employed as a endangered species monitor in Zulu land, South Africa. I have had a variety of different field based jobs prior to this, after completing a BSc in Zoology. I want to gain skills and knowledge that will equip me to manage future projects. I love being in the field, as demanding as it can be. I focus mostly on carnivore conservation and am quite privileged to be situated on one of the oldest proclaimed reserves in Africa. My day to day routine consists of tracking and monitoring African wild dog packs, one of my favourite animals. I get to work and collaborate with other organisations that are all focused on saving endangered species. I enjoy photographing the wildlife I get to encounter as well as learning from others. I love the African bush life.
I am a senior conservation communications professional with 25 years’ experience fund raising, building partnerships, running teams, programmes and budgets and delivering high profile events. I relocated from the UK to South Africa in 2011, as I wanted to work closer to the 'coalface' of conservation. Since then I've been working as a conservation consultant, advising on strategic development. For the last five years, I have been working closely with Limpopo-based NGO's Elephants Alive, Rhino Revolution and Wild Shots Outreach.
