I joined FFI in 2012 and am responsible for the day-to-day running of our Marine Plastics programme which aims to adress the extent and impact of marine plastic pollution by improving policies and practices. I have a master’s degree in Oceanography and a keen interest in climate change, marine ecology and biodiversity conservation. I have worked in Europe, Africa and the Middle East in conservation, environmental monitoring and environmental education roles and have contributed to the design of community outreach programs and conservation initiatives.
