Student in M2 Biodiversity, Ecology, Evolution at the National Museum of Natural History in Paris, I specialize in Fauna and Flora expertise, with a particular attraction to flora.My story with nature began on horseback, in the wild landscapes of Corsica. I first explored these environments through my equestrian treks, before "setting foot on land" to professionalize myself in the scientific study and preservation of these natural environments that fascinate me so much.In 2022, I joined the naturalist networks of the National Forestry Office in Corsica during an internship. It was there that I had the chance to follow species such as the Corsican nuthatch and the red deer, while learning about herpetology. It was then that I realized that I could turn my passion into a real job!With a Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences from the University of Corsica, I have worked on projects ranging from the impact of fires on floristic diversity to the study of fungal diversity. I have also acquired solid skills in molecular biology (PCR, DNA sequencing), statistics and data analysis.Thanks to the Museum, I had the chance to discover other ecosystems, particularly in Brittany and the Alps, which allowed me to broaden my knowledge beyond Corsica.Today, I share my passion by leading naturalist kayak tours on the Golu River for the general public, combining the discovery of island fauna and flora with an educational approach. I also spend time exploring nature on foot or on horseback, in order to enrich my naturalist knowledge. My goal: to continue exploring, share my passion, and contribute to the protection of our natural heritage, particularly that of island environments.
