Camille‘s career in wildlife ecology began in 2003, sparked by her initial work with the critically endangered Philippine Eagle. This early experience with a species on the brink steered her research towards the movement ecology of poorly understood Philippine birds of prey, driven by a desire to contribute to their conservation. Camille holds a Ph.D. in Wildlife Ecology from West Virginia University. She currently lives in Davao City, Philippines, with her husband, two children, and a dynamic collection of guppies and plants.
