I am a sailor and marine conservationist. After 3 years spent living and working in Scotland, I’m looking forward to heading of travelling and adventuring - exploring new places and learning about different cultures.

I’m my spare time, I enjoy reading, baking/cooking, and outdoor activities (cycling, kayaking and hiking).

I mainly work in marine conservation and in the maritime industry. However I’ve also spent time working in hospitality, the Arts (film making) and I even ran my own micro bakery for 2 years!
