Ever since I started working on various conservation projects in Peru, I knew I wanted to dedicate myself to working in the rainforest. I studied environmental engineering, and after completing a research internship offered by Wilderness International for young Peruvians, I decided to support the organization as a forest ranger. I had the opportunity to work firsthand with researchers in the fields of herpetology, mammals, and birds, which allowed me to further improve my skills in wildlife monitoring.

My work focuses on the biological monitoring of our protected areas. As an environmental engineer, my goal is to collect data that contributes to decision making for the conservation of our most fragile ecosystems. Working in the rainforest is a constant learning experience because nature always has something new to offer. Every day is different and amazing, full of shapes, colors and sounds that you can perceive while walking in the forest. I really enjoy that!
