To be a scientist, it is really important to be passionate about it. It is amazing to check the craziest ideas that can be developed and promote world improvement.

I’m passionate about ocean conservation, marine exploration, and helping people rediscover their relationship with the sea. Despite covering more than 70% of our planet, the ocean remains one of humanity’s least understood ecosystems. Yet it regulates our climate, sustains livelihoods, produces much of the oxygen we breathe, and supports incredible biodiversity. I believe protecting it begins with making it visible. Through diving, storytelling, and advocacy, I hope to bridge the gap between science and society—translating complex environmental challenges into stories that inspire curiosity and action. I’m especially passionate about elevating African ocean narratives and documenting the marine life, coastal communities, and conservation efforts that are too often overlooked in global conversations. Above all, I believe that conservation is ultimately about people: creating a future where both humanity and marine ecosystems can thrive together.
