I am a National Geographic Explorer since 2016. According to NatGeo, Explorers are exceptional individuals in their fields who receive funding and support from the Society to illuminate and protect our world through their work in science, exploration, education, and storytelling.  I have received grants from the Society to support my research or to document biodiversity in South America. I have published dozens of photos and four stories with NatGeo Brazil and NatGeo Latin America.
