Sefoben’ny tarika / Directeur de l'expedition

Katie has been living and working in Asia for the last year after a few years of working in the environmental industry in London. Her decision to come to Asia was a little like coming home, as she grew up in Sri-Lanka and Indonesia with her expatriate family.

She is also the Expedition Project Coordinator, with a BSc in Zoology and an MSc in Environmental Monitoring. She is experienced in working on volunteer conservation projects, including a year in Madagascar as one of our field scientists. Katie credits her year in Madagascar as her inspiration to continue in the conservation industry, and to seek out new places for our marine expeditions.
