I am aware that statistics tend not to make much impact on the world, whereas stories have age-old power. As an enthusiastic and clear communicator, I have made a number of nature-based broadcasts with the BBC, produced my own YouTube video series called the Rewilding Diaries, and created audio and written stories.
Presenting and film-making
I continue to make a series of short films about rewilding people and places. My aim is to connect people to the nature and inspire them to be more adventurous.

I was previously represented by The Soho Agency made a few online pieces and pilots about mapping, fishing and wildlife.
