Hi I'm Jennifer!
Hi everyone, I've joined Wildhub to make new connections and gain more insight into the sector I'd like to work in.
I've recently resigned from my position as Clinical Director in a busy small animal veterinary practice with the aim of finding a job tackling wildlife crime and the illegal wildlife trade.
I'm currently living in Northern Ireland but my family and I are returning to the Eastern Cape, South Africa next year where we have a small piece of land involved in the Albany Thicket Biodiversity Corridor project.
I'd love to connect with others working in the industry or anyone with suggestions on how I might achieve my goal!
I'm a small animal veterinarian by trade but over the years have realised it's not where I need to be if I want to help make a real difference in the world. While on maternity leave with my daughter I resigned from my job and have committed myself to finding a role in conservation.
Aside from the more obvious skills you'd expect from a vet, I am a problem solver, analytical thinker, researcher, multi tasker, communicator and so much more. I have a particular interest in wildlife crime and wildlife trade believing my background and experience will serve as an asset in these fields.
I am open to networking, advice and opportunities. Please get in touch.
