- Hometown:
- Halifax, Nova Scotia
- What conservation issue is closest to your heart?
- Loss of species, pollution and overexploitation of natural resources.
- What are you hoping to learn from CCC?
- I’m expecting to meet interesting people, be challenged and learn new things. I’m also expecting to get blisters, be cold, and be really happy at the same time.
- Who/what inspired you to care about conservation?
- Spending time with animals and in nature has inspired me to care about conservation. Humans are not so different from other animals in the ways that matter. Separating ourselves from nature is a root cause of many problems in the world.
- If you could sit down with anyone in the world and have tea or coffee, who would it be? And why?
- Jane Goodall. She has dedicated her life to conservation and has been through a lot, yet somehow she remains hopeful and happy.
