Who I Am 

Valentin Teillard

20240923_120531_edited.jpg

I’m Valentin Teillard, a freelance marine biologist and founder of Enhydra Msc Bio. Originally from Martinique, I grew up surrounded by the ocean, which shaped my passion for marine life and conservation.

I hold a Master’s degree in Marine Science and have several years of experience working in the field, both at sea and behind the screen. My work focuses on cetaceans and marine ecosystems, combining ecological field data collection, photo-identification, bioacoustics, and statistical modeling.

Over the years, I’ve collaborated with research teams in the Caribbean and the Pacific, contributing to studies on marine mammal distribution, social structure, and conservation strategies.
