Welcome to my research and coaching website
I am a researcher, personal development coach and mental health advocate with an interest in research culture and in development and wellbeing in the academic environment.
I worked for many years in the field of wildlife conservation and management. I use interdisciplinary and participatory approaches for the study and management of complex human-nature systems in multistakeholder settings.
In 2020, I built on my research career and began supporting students and researchers in their personal journey and development, leadership and communication activities, and collegial work efforts. At the core of my work is a focus on personal wellbeing and fulfilment, which I consider an individual right (and duty), and well as an absolute prerequisite for research excellence.
I love to communicate, connect and learn about others, their stories and experiences, and I strive to integrate, connect and mediate disciplines, views and visions for healthier and fairer communities.
We made it to Edinburgh and are settling in our new country, city and home.
Life is a bit hectic, but we are all loving it!
