As a Visual Anthropology graduate with a passion for exploring the intricate relationships between humans and their environments, I am particularly drawn to the Swiss Alps. My research interests include shepherding, sensory anthropology, and multispecies interactions.Currently, I am engaged in a filmic research project that delves into the sensory perception of shepherds living and working in this breathtaking yet challenging landscape, where they navigate the complexities of coexisting with wolves. Through this project, I aim to give insight into the nuanced ways in which these shepherds experience their surroundings and the profound impact of their work on local ecosystems.I am committed to using visual storytelling as a means to foster a deeper understanding of these unique anthropological perspectives. I look forward to connecting with others who share a passion for anthropology, environmental studies, and documentary filmmaking.
