About me
Intro
With over a decade of experience working on impactful biodiversity conservation projects, I’ve developed and implemented funding strategies, technical assistance for marine and coastal protected areas, collaborated with diverse public and private stakeholders, and supported amazing conservation organisations and initiatives around the Mediterranean. Now working freelance, I’m eager to partner with organizations creating positive environmental and social impact.
