Steve Ball

Nathalie was a proactive member of the FSC Africa team, leading on both communications across Africa, and also stepping in as our Acting Coordinator in the Congo Basin. Nathalie played a key role in developing FSC's relations with the Gabonese government and sustaining harmonious relations with our Francophone members and certificate holders. Nathalie always delivered 100% commitment and passion. I honestly do not know how we would have got through some of those times without Nathalie.

There are people in this world that can make things happen and Nathlie is one of them. Nathalie helped facilitate collection of wood and cocoa samples in a number of projects in West Africa and Gabon. I can't overstate that these collection efforts wouldn't have been possible without her talents in communication and stakeholder management. Organising sample collection is hard, has a great many moving parts, and can easily stall but Nathalie found ways to make it work. It was always a pleasure working with her.
