​

I bridge the environmental and social sciences, and the academic and policy spheres, having previously worked as a community forester with Indigenous peoples and smallholders in the Brazilian Amazon before completing a PhD in Human Geography.

My research explores the interplay between tropical forest conservation and rural development and the associated consequences for community livelihoods. I'm interested in understanding the co-creation of political enhancements that incorporate environmental justice principles into multiple decision-making processes.
