  • More details about your skills

    I have just graduated with a BSc Zoology and would keen to put the theory I have learned in conservation and ecology into practice such as permaculture design or ecosystem management. Throughout my studies I have gained an informed concern for the quality and sustainability of life and would love the opportunity to understand contextual knowledge and ideas in different parts of the world on how to tackle and amend environmental problems.

    I have a massive and willingness to learn and try new things, as demonstrated through directed and self-directed study - learning quickly and efficiently.

    Coupled with my studies, my working life has provided me with excellent interpersonal and communication skills. I am able to effectively communicate information for different purposes and in different contexts.

    Furthermore, I am proficient in animal husbandry with a qualification in animal care, this includes an array of various animals including small mammals, reptiles and birds.
