She maintains a global network of experts, and served as Chief Editor of the FAO Aquaculture Newsletter from 2006 to 2016. She spearheaded the development of a new initiative called Progressive Management Pathway for Improving Aquaculture Biosecurity, a paradigm shift in managing health of aquatic species through a risk-based, collaborative and progressive approach. She is Team Leader of Food Safety, Nutrition and Health team at the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division of FAO since 2021; aside from supervisory tasks, she leads FAO work on biosecurity, disease risk assessment, surveillance, national/regional aquatic organisms health strategies, AMR in aquaculture; develops and implements capacity development activities, projects, training courses, seminars/conferences; conducts investigations of disease outbreaks and mass mortality events in aquatic populations; and represents FAO in relevant bodies, committees, advisory board, erc..
