Biography
The disciplinary diversity of the FES, as well as an affinity with its goals, especially those having to do with environmental integrity, social justice and human livelihood improvement and wellbeing brought me to FES. For the last 20 years I have been working in the field of community “development” and environmental conservation in the Neo-tropics, principally in Costa Rica, and this is what I hope to share with students and colleagues at FES. The challenges are ever greater in this field, but it is my hope and belief that together we can make a difference, change the world for better.
