My father was manager of the Cape Of Good Hope National Park in Cape Town South Africa. My family and I spent my entire childhood and teenage years living in a game reserve, which is why I say my passion for wildlife is in my blood!
As soon as I could, I followed in my father’s footsteps and studied to become a dangerous game wildlife guide. For 7 years I lead many guests on vehicle, walking and marine safaris in some of Africa’s most renowned wildlife reserves. I spent a number of years working in South Africa, Tanzania, Mozambique, Botswana and Zimbabwe.
In 2014 South Africa experienced an onslaught of rhino poaching. I have an unexplainable love for rhinos and headed up an anti-poaching unit based on private game reserves in KwaZulu Natal to protect these endangered species against organised criminals. A few years on and I was running anti-wildlife trafficking projects for the World Wildlife Fund WWF as the Law Enforcement Technical Advisor. What an accomplishment this was for me and after some time I returned back to the tourism and lodge industry. The lodges were located at some of the most incredible safari destinations in Africa.
A combination of scuba diving and wildlife photography is what drives me to explore some of these wonderful landscapes. This has led us to create Echo Wild Africa.
