Summary

Over the past three years, I have charted a path in conservation through the art of storytelling. During this period, I have been fortunate to work closely with prominent personalities in conservation and activism such as Dr. Sylvia Earle, Captain Paul Watson, Kimi Werner, Obi Kaufmann, Louis Psihoyos, and many more. Motivated by the desire to spark transformation, I have initiated waves of impact that I hope will resonate with the global community.
