I am a freelance Mountain Leader living on the Isle of Arran. I hold the MLTB Summer ML Award and I am a member of the Mountain Leader Training Association. I am passsionate about the outdoors and am the project co-ordinator for the Isle of Arran Wildlife Festival as well as the Isle of Arran Outdoor and Walking Festival. I am also a part time seasonal ranger with the National Trust for Scotland Ranger Service at Brodick Castle and Country Park.
When not busy working, I like nothing better than to get out into the hills rock climbing and scrambling. I am a keen winter mountaineer and often travel to Europe to climb snow, ice and rock. Recent trips have included Rjukan in Norway and Liguria in Italy. I have also recently purchased a sea kayak and am having a lot of fun learning this new craft.
