I am a co-founding member of the Econesian Society, a student based environmental group with a Pacific regional presence. I have been part of biodiversity surveys in New Caledonia, Solomon Islands, Tahiti, Tuvalu and all over Fiji.
Marrying traditional knowledge with modern science is an area that I am really keen on. I beleive the two are inseperable!!
