With an ever-growing passion for the natural world, Connie is an ambitious hard-working individual taking steps towards a career in the science communication sector of conservation; having recently graduated from the University of Nottingham with a first class BSc Hons Zoology degree. As a member of the WWF, an ORCA Marine Mammal surveyor and a Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust education volunteer, Connie is a proactive young conservationist contributing to the protection of wildlife in her local area and further afield.

Connie’s ultimate ambition is to combine her scientific background with the creative medium of film to pursue a career in wildlife filmmaking; aiming to educate and inspire the next generation of conservationists.
