Connecting Research, Conservation, and Development

My work sits at the intersection of science, conservation, and real-world implementation.

I focus on developing projects that are viable across dimensions – ecological, economic, scientific, and social – without treating any of them as optional. Long-term impact requires coherence, not trade-offs.

I don’t approach projects as isolated problems to solve, but as systems to understand, align, and steward. At its core, my work is about restoring connection: between knowledge and action, between people and place, and with what quietly asks our attention beneath the surface.


The ocean does not need saving. It needs to be met clearly.
