About me

I am the Development and partnerships Lead at Global Canopy. Global Canopy is a data-driven not-for-profit that targets the market forces destroying nature. We have a particular focus on halting and reversing global deforestation and its impacts on Indigenous Peoples and local communities.
Global Canopy promotes transparency and accountability to motivate and enable action. We provide innovative open-access data, metrics and insights to leading companies, financial institutions, governments and campaigning organisations worldwide, to help them make better decisions about nature, forests and people.
I have worked for environmental, sustainable development and educational organisation for over two decades. My expertise lies in building partnerships to support impactful work. Please reach out to discuss how we might work together.
