Biography

I am a motivated and adaptable professional with a strong background in ecology, climate sciences, and marine conservation. My diverse experiences include fieldwork, research roles, teaching, and management positions, particularly focusing on environmental conservation, biodiversity, and community ecology. I have a deep interest in terrestrial and marine ecosystems and am passionate about contributing to sustainable practices through scientific research and fieldwork. I hold a Master of Science in Climate Sciences from the University of Bern and a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, which have honed my expertise in data management, field research, and scientific communication. My academic background is complemented by extensive hands-on experience in ecological research, such as seed predation studies and forest management at ETH Zürich, and coral restoration projects in the Caribbean. Additionally, I have worked with large datasets, managed research teams, and developed a solid foundation in GIS data analysis tools such as ArcGIS, R Studio, and Adobe Illustrator. I also speak multiple languages, including French, English, German, Spanish, and Arabic, and hold professional certifications as a PADI Dive Instructor, Wilderness Aid, and Ski Instructor.
