Responsibilities

As a marine biologist and ecologist, I am passionate about polar research, ocean sustainability and science communication. I enjoy engaging with local communities and demonstrating how sustainability can be straightforward and accessible, forming part of daily life. In my role as a leader within the Sustainable Ocean Alliance and APECS Portugal, I develop initiatives that bring together young people, researchers, and policymakers to encourage collaboration and promote climate literacy.
