Exeter MSc student - Marine Vertebrate Ecology and Conservation, University of Exeter
Working in conservation was always my dream job!
It took me a while to get there but fast forward some years and I was leading conservation programmes and teams around the world. During my time in that role I realised that I was both at risk of burnout and had become a little disconnected from the day-to-day conservation impact that I was passionate about. However, I loved developing, supporting and coaching the teams I managed and decided to re-train as a coach so that I could spend more time focusing on supporting others to excel in their role and remain passionate and effective within the conservation sector.
I joined WildHub to stay up-to-date with the conservation world, share my experiences and support conservation professionals however I can.
