I am a practically-minded ecologist and interdisciplinary researcher based in Glasgow and the Highlands, passionately committed to making towns and countryside better connected for nature. To this end, I run Baile Duthaich, an ecological consultancy that offers a range of services to support my clients learn about and promote nature more meaningfully and impactfully in their projects.

I also run a copy-editing business, offering comprehensive editorial services to help authors prepare their work for publication.

Finally, I enjoy writing children’s stories and you can find my first published work, Bite and Mackay go to sea, here.
