I am an independent researcher, working alongside several agencies and institutions in SE Asia, and North America. My current focus is on using modern technologies and implementation of machine learning, computer vision, and AI to create efficient and automated wildlife systems. My long-term goal is to create a monitoring network to enable a global response to detrimental environmental change in order to effectively allocate funding and resources.
