Growing up on the border of a beautiful state forest was always going to establish a lasting connection with me and the natural world. Most of my afternoons were spent exploring the seemingly endless Australian bush that was right on my doorstop. My love of nature was only expanded even further the first time I went scuba diving, and from there a career flourished that took me on some incredible adventures that will be fore-ever cherished. ​ Unfortunately a devastating back injury took from me my ability to follow that dream and a decade of immense difficulties but also incredible self discovery has followed.  Drive and ambition found me running my own business in Colombia, a place of such immense beauty, even years there gave me but a glimpse of what it had to offer.  ​ While my life seemed destined to carry on there, the unforeseeable circumstances of the pandemic brought me back to another decisive moment to choose a new path. ​ This presented an opportunity for me to move into a exciting new chapter and pursue my love of nature by aiming to commit myself towards healing the earth as much as I can. ​​
