I am a Conservation Biology student studying BSc Honours Degree in Biology. I have been actively involved in wildlife conservation practices doing field research education and training in local schools.
I am currently in the process of leaving the Navy as a Hydrographic Surveyor and looking to get into a career in Environmental Conservation which I studied at University. After long periods away at sea trying to peek beneath the waves at what lies below I have decided it is time to pursue a career following one of my other interests. I have always been fascinated by the Natural World and I spend much of my free time volunteering at a local Nature Reserve getting wet and muddy, yet learning practical management and ID skills.
Hi, I’m really excited to be attending this course as I want to career switch into Conservation and Project Management will help me on this journey. I currently run my own animal first aid business and I am half way through a Masters in Applied Wildlife Conservation at Anglia Ruskin University. Looking forward to meeting everyone on the course!
I'm passionate about protecting wildlife and wild places, particularly through the development of participatory and preventative strategies that address wildlife crime.
I'm based in Malaysia and love enjoying natural places in Southeast Asia, whether that be hiking/trail running through forests, bird & wildlife watching or paddle boarding/kayaking/snorkeling along the coast.
I am an undergraduate student at the Institute Of Forestry, Hetauda campus under Tribhuvan University with a keen interest in wildlife conservation and Ecology Study. Currently, I'm working as a student intern at Forest Research and Training Centre under the Ministry of Forest and Environment, Nepal as a part of my undergraduate research study. I'm also seeking for research assistantship for my masters.
I have worked in Further and Higher Education for most of my career. I have experience of project management, stakeholder management, business administration and process improvement. My last role was as a Research Student Manager looking after over 300 PhD computer science students. I decided to chase my dream of working in conservation when I had the opportunity to take voluntary redundancy...if not now, when? was finally the question that make me take the big scary jump. I'm really interested in rewilding, reintroducing species, habitat maintenance and general health of our world's wildlife and habitats. As a career switcher I have limited experience in conservation but have always been around animals and not afraid to get my hands dirty having worked on a farm when I was younger, and I'm keen horse rider. I am currently seeking local volunteer opportunities. Lock-down has obviously made things a bit harder to get as involved as I'd hoped, but am exploring the options that are available remotely.
