I have always wanted to make a change in the world, by being a voice for nature and wildlife. Starting with horses as a child, growing up next to a stable, and by the sea, and being able to see porpoises often. I quickly realized animals are as intelligent as humans. We are not superior to them in any way, we have just as a species placed ourselves above them. I believe we are truly meant to be custodians of this Earth and to live in harmony with it. In the animal kingdom, there is balance, and this is what we need to learn as humans as well. I am an educated Marine Naturalist, working for Genuswave to protect wildlife by using acoustic technology to keep animals safely at a distance from cities, fishing nets, etc. As an avid photographer, I am hoping to get more photos of the Minkie Whales of Northern Norway. I am also working for Sea Shepherd Norway, volunteering, and have started my campaign to end whaling in Norway for good. It is also important to mention Faroe Island, and Iceland as a main point of focus. I love activism, as much as I love simply partaking in beautiful scenery surrounded by wildlife, and that is why I have started my Whale Watching Company, to be able to bring people out to the whales in their natural surroundings. I love the work Sooo is doing for our planet, and I am honored to be a part of that.
