Get to know me
I was born and raised in Suffolk but have also lived in Leeds, London, Australia, Cape Town and now Bristol! I worked at an adventure travel company for 9 years before I joined Swoop and have been lucky enough to experience some of the most amazing places our world has to offer.
Travel remains one of my biggest passions, and I now get to enjoy it with my partner and young son. I love how it changes you after every trip. It broadens your mind, challenges your views and breaks down stereotypes. I have always been a big fan of the most remote parts of the world – the harder to get to the better.

My top 5 Antarctic experiences
- Being blown away by the sheer scale, remoteness and unspoilt natural beauty of Antarctica
- Watching gigantic icebergs float by from the window in my cabin – just amazing
- Seeing whales during the zodiac boat cruises. There were so many during March, I could barely count them!
- Kayaking alongside playful penguins as they splashed through the glassy polar waters
- Taking part in citizen science – from seabird surveys to cloud surveys – with our enthusiastic expedition guides
