Kia ora! I'm Stephanie, a born and bred Kiwi who has recently jumped across the ditch to pursue my passion for conservation. I currently hold a Bachelor of Arts and Science from the University of Otago, with majors in English and Genetics. I am now studying towards a Masters in Conservation Biology, and absolutely loving it. I have always had a special place in my heart for wild things and wild places, especially those that most people find a little harder love. I hope to be able to use my skills not only learn more about protecting our wild things, but also to communicate why others should love and protect them too.
