My focus is creating impact that benefits both people and the planet, by bridging healthcare and climate resilience. Above all, I work on protecting people from heat, especially outdoor workers in low and middle income countries.

I have seen first-hand how a changing climate affects health, and it ignited my passion for climate action and resilience. Extreme heat is already reshaping how we work, live and care for one another.

The question I continue to ask myself: how do we use science to better protect people?

My current role is as Climate & Health Implementation and Science Lead in the Global Medical and Evidence Team at Bayer and I am based in Paris, France.
