I am a tri-national citizen of Ecuador, Spain, and the United States, with a lifelong commitment to environmental conservation and a career that has taken me across some of the world’s most culturally and ecologically significant landscapes. My career has moved between communications, filmmaking, writing, translation, editing, and research. I have independently produced more than fifty video chronicles documenting Lindblad Expeditions–National Geographic voyages in remote regions, and have carried out anthropological and historical research in the Basque Country, the Ecuadorian Amazon, the Galápagos Islands, and Montserrat.

Before beginning my doctoral studies, I worked in Greece and India as a film intern, producing short films between my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. My Master’s research focused on an Indigenous people in the Ecuadorian Amazon, after which I joined the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). I later returned to the Galápagos Islands as a communications officer for the Charles Darwin Research Station, where I worked at the intersection of science, conservation, and public engagement. I completed my PhD in Anthropology at the University of Oxford, then worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Maine. I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate on the 'Rethinking Natural Resources' project at Oxford, focusing on the imprediments to geothermal energy on the Caribbean island of Montserrat.
