Author/Private tutor/urban farmer

From a young age I have always been fascinated by nature, how life came to be on this planet, the systems that sustain us and how everything is so intricately connected in The Great Web of Life. My innate curiosity has driven the development of my thinking throughout my life, enabling me to integrate an increasingly broad range of knowledge across various fields, from the natural sciences to psychology, to philosophy and even sociology. As an advocate for knowledge and understanding of ourselves and the world around us, I am highly motivated to learn, grow and improve my knowledge and skillset in the natural sciences, with the aim to attain greater understanding of natural systems that sustain all life, and to develop sustainable solutions for the conservation of biodiversity and ecology. I am able and willing to work in almost any environment, so long as I am gaining valuable experience and making a positive difference in the name of sustainability and human prosperity.
