Bio/CV

I am a Conservation Artist originally from San Francisco, California. Through multi-media (painting, drawing, photography), I share my passion for the environment and promote conservation efforts.

​

In 2019, I received my masters degree in Sustainable Tourism Management from the Sustainability Management School in Switzerland & in 2016, a Bachelors degree in Art from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa.

​

As an environmental activist, I use art as a conservation tool to promote sustainability and conservation efforts. My industry knowledge is in the field of sustainable strategy, sustainable corporate profitability, ecosystem services, conservation policy, GRI, SDGs, circular economic thinking, strategic marketing, business management, and risk management.

​

My work experience has been developing tools and approaches for circular economy solutions, sustainable strategies, and innovative solutions for a more sustainable business. During my Masters program, I worked with WWF to develop a set of sustainable strategies to use tourism as a critical conservation tool in an effort to preserve and increase the tiger population in India. Using Indian governmental policy, carrying capacity, and communication, I identified a way to accomplish this through communication, education and empowerment. Key stakeholders were also important to identify and pinpoint the exact way to spread awareness and achieve the targeted ROI. I provided this research and development to WWF’s CA|TS Manager, Khalid Pasha and TOFTigers’ Founder and Chairman, Julian Mathews to use in their future sustainable efforts to increase the tiger population.
