I have worked in administration for over 15 years in various roles including a veterinary practice and currently run a music department at an independent school.
I have always been passionate about wildlife and am very fortunate to live in the beautiful rural county of Somerset in the UK. The Somerset Levels are largely wetlands with great visitors sites and projects run by the Somerset Wildlife Trust. We have a lot of visitors coming to see the diverse species of birds and other wildlife, the starling murmurations are amazing and draw thousands of visitors a year.
Conservation is something I am very passionate about and would love to learn the skills needed to work in this sector. I worked with an animal charity in Thailand several years ago and would love to work on a conservation project in Costa Rica in the future.
