01 / The person

Closer to nature.
Closer to people.

My work brings together expedition life, guest experience and conservation. At Rascal Voyages, I shape journeys through Indonesia and support the people who bring them to life. Away from the itinerary, you’ll usually find me with a camera, looking a little closer at the natural world.

I’ve led multicultural teams of up to 40 people, with experience across crew development, vessel operations and the details of life onboard. The thread running through it all is curiosity: about places, about wildlife, and about the people we meet.
