My academic background is research on wildlife trade, and I work with distilleries and spas on botanicals selection and sourcing. I write about wild resources in articles for newspapers and magazines, as well as in my books, and show them to guests on journeys with National Geographic Expeditions,. I’ve been a speaker at events including at the Chelsea Physic Garden as part of The Chelsea Fringe, the Norwich Science Festival, and the Boutique Bar Show on wild foods, drinks, materials and medicines. I’m a member of the Association of Foragers, which has included serving a term as a committee member.
