Resson is the Portfolio Funding Director at Maliasili where she is working to raise both the funding and influence of local conservation organisations across Africa.

She previously served as the Deputy Director of Ewaso Lions. She is a Women for the Environment (WE Africa) Founding Fellow, a TED Speaker, a National Geographic Explorer, and was also conferred the Wild Elements Innovator award in 2021.
