Sustainability & Nature Positive Tourism Lead
London Office
4 years' Experience in Travel

I started working in travel in 2022, when I made a career change and moved to Botswana to work at a horseback safari lodge in the Okavango Delta.

I'm super passionate about the opportunities for travel and tourism to support environmental conservation and sustainable community development (which Botswana models brilliantly). I really believe that when we travel with a conscience, we can leave a positive impact in the incredible destinations we visit.

I feel really fortunate that I get to channel that passion into my job at Scott Dunn!

My Favourite Scott Dunn Hotels and Tours

Sarara Treehouses

The Sarara properties and community conservancy are the ultimate showcase of responsible tourism, supporting the prosperity of local people and conserving wildlife and wildspaces.

VIEW HOTEL
Grootbos Private Nature Reserve

Grootbos is the ultimate flora & fauna nerds' playground (my dream) - home to thousands of plant species, 106 bee species, and a window to Walker Bay, where you can see whales right on the shoreline.

VIEW HOTEL
Rare Earth, Sri Lanka

This itinerary is an amazing showcase of how conservation, community development and cultural celebration can all be woven into an unforgettable, luxurious adventure of a lifetime.
