About
I build conservation tech that measures what communities already know — bioacoustic sensors, satellite imagery, and AI classifiers co-designed with Indigenous partners across the Ecuadorian Amazon.
I founded Neblina Labs in Quito. We work with the Shuar de la Selva federation on indigenous-led restoration monitoring, and with the Siekopai community to find the world's smallest monkey. We partner with Fundación Jocotoco on the largest Neotropical labeled bioacoustic dataset, and with the Earth Species Project on next-generation models.
Trained in computer science at Sorbonne. Ecuadorian with German passport, trilingual (Spanish, English, French). Based in Quito.
