One of my first animal roles was at the age of eighteen, where I worked at Flamingo Land zoo training parrots and sea lions and delivering shows to the public.
Since then, I have worked in many animal industry roles including; exotic pet supervisor and aquatics specialist. I have also spent a year working with animals in Australia.
Alongside my animal work I obtained a BSc Honours in Animal Psychology and the Diploma in Management of Zoos & Aquarium Animals (DMZAA).
In my most previous role before A-Z Exotics, I spent six years as a qualified senior zoo keeper & animal presenter at The Yorkshire Wildlife Park.

I began working with animals at age fourteen where I landed my first Saturday job at a local kennels.
Since then, I have continuously worked in a variety of animal care roles including exotic pet shop advisor and animal keeper. I also have paid veterinary experience, therefore I am confident at administering a range of drugs and medications.
Alongside my practical work, I have obtained a BSc Honours in Animal Psychology.
My specialist interest is exotic birds and their welfare. I have written over twenty published husbandry and welfare-based articles on the subject.
In my most previous role before A-Z Exotics, i spent six years as an animal keeper and instructor at one of the UK's leading land based college’s, working with almost every species of exotic pet you can imagine.
