Bridging science, policy, and practice to drive impactful conservation and biodiversity strategy across landscapes and communities.

I’m a specialist in biodiversity conservation and policy, with a strong focus on integrated landscape approaches and ecological connectivity. My work sits at the intersection of science, policy, and practice—advancing strategic research, fostering human-wildlife coexistence, and strengthening conservation communications.

​

Over the past seven years, I’ve worked across sectors to bring together diverse stakeholders—youth, communities, NGOs, businesses, and governments—around shared goals for conservation and climate resilience. My experience spans policy research, conservation strategy, and high-level engagement to catalyze impactful, cross-sector collaborations. I’ve led initiatives in forest conservation, climate mitigation, and sustainable land use across government, multilateral, and private sectors, ensuring alignment with global frameworks.

​

Currently, I am supporting the advancement of the Tropical Forest Forever Facility a major initiative proposed by the Government of Brazil to be launched at COP30 in Belém in November 2025. My role involves strategic oversight of the TFFF, coordination with international networks, engagement with the German government to advocate for investment, and providing both strategic and technical input. I also manage an investment tracker and monitor negotiations and dialogues with private sector stakeholders.

​

In parallel, I’m developing a local-level strategy to advance India’s National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan under the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, working in partnership with a municipal corporation.

While pursuing a second Master’s degree in Conservation Leadership, I am also a fellow of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung’s Political Fellowship Program.
