Conservation strategy. Built, measured, delivered.

I help conservation organizations turn ambitious plans into functioning reality. From decision-support tools to impact analysis to program strategy—I bridge the gap between what you want to do and proving it actually works.

Let's talk about your challenge

I solve the implementation gap

Most conservation organizations are excellent at vision and strategy. Where they struggle is execution: building the systems to support decisions, measuring whether programs actually work, and proving impact to funders.

I've spent 7 years working across government (UK DEFRA), international conservation NGOs, and corporate sustainability programs. I don't just advise—I build, analyze, and deliver.

I help organizations:

  • Build decision-support systems and data infrastructure
  • Measure program effectiveness using rigorous analysis
  • Turn complex data into actionable insights for leadership
  • Develop and execute conservation strategies that work
  • Demonstrate impact to funders and stakeholders

Technical capability meets strategic thinking

I'm different from typical consultants because I can do the full spectrum:

Strategy & Leadership

  • Program strategy development
  • Advisory to senior leadership
  • Partnership negotiation
  • Grant writing and fundraising support

Technical Delivery

  • Decision-support dashboards and tools
  • Statistical analysis of program effectiveness
  • Data infrastructure development
  • Custom software solutions

Implementation & Communication

  • Project management and execution
  • Stakeholder engagement and facilitation
  • Impact reporting and visualization
  • Translating technical insights for non-technical audiences

I work on both short-term projects (1-3 months) and longer-term strategic partnerships (6-12 months), depending on what your organization needs.

Experience that spans sectors

I've built decision-support tools in UK government during COVID and Brexit, managed conservation programs for international NGOs, and advised on sustainability strategy in the private sector.

This cross-sector experience means I bring best practices from each world and understand how to make things actually work within organizational constraints.

What makes me different:

  • I can code a decision dashboard and present the strategy to your board
  • I've worked inside these organizations—I understand the reality, not just theory
  • I deliver implementation, not just recommendations
  • Marine conservation specialist, but skills apply across all conservation work
  • You get senior-level expertise without the big consultancy price tag
