About
Thank you for visiting!
​
I am a Swiss-British interdisciplinary, values-driven researcher with 20 years' experience in wildlife conservation, specialising in primate and community conservation. Throughout this period I have held various field-based research, management and teaching positions for a number of world-leading organisations.
I am currently finishing a part-time doctorate degree at University College London with additional supervisors from ZSL's Institute of Zoology, Sun Yat-Sen University in China, Oxford Brookes University, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (Primate Specialist Group's Section on Small Apes).
​
Alongside my doctorate degree, I am a freelance conservation consultant, qualified lecturer (Fellow of the Higher Education Academy), and a full-time mother. I also regularly contribute to public outreach events, and deliver workshops to primary and secondary school students.
In my spare time I climb mountains and write children's books to support conservation efforts and raise important awareness about threatened species.
