Environmental Scientist/Wildlife Biologist

 

In over 10 years of working in environmental sciences I have been part of many successful initiatives in wildlife studies and EIA. I have worked on a large variety of projects – from assessments in Hydroelectric Dams and landfill projects to eucalyptus and sugarcane production. I have a strong background in both fieldwork and project management – working in numerous sites in Canada, Mexico and South America that ranged from demanding arid areas to the Amazonian Rainforest. I have extensive management and technical experience in all parts of biodiversity-related environmental assessments (surveys, sampling methods, collection and identification) and relationships with local communities and traditional knowledge.
