My inspiration comes from nature. From the majestic albatross soaring over the ocean to giants of the deep. When living in New Zealand, I was frequently graced with sightings of albatrosses, whales and dolphins. To spot these creatures from my window was majestic. However, I also encountered dead albatrosses and attended whale strandings as a marine mammal medic. These encounters have increased my appreciation for life in and above the oceans. Through sharing my passion, I hope to inspire others to care for life on this planet.
