My background

Since training as a guide in Kruger National Park in 2010, my safari career has expanded to include roles as diverse as game ranger, lodge manager, guide trainer, operations manager and national tour guide. I have seen first hand how safari ecotourism and conservation work together, and have a lasting impact on people and their surroundings. Now I bring my passion, knowledge and experience to tailormaking meaningful and transformative safari journeys.

 

The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.
John Muir

 

I am a guide at heart, having spent years interpreting wild places, and helping my guests to connect deeply with nature. My career has taken me through every layer of the safari world, from guiding and overland expeditions to lodge operations, logistics, and conservation partnerships. I understand how exceptional safaris are created and brought to life, and I bring a guide’s mindset to every itinerary, ensuring each journey is authentic, thoughtful, and truly rooted in the natural world.
