After completing a degree in Conservation Ecology at the University of Edinburgh, I managed (together with my wife) a number of camps and lodges in the Mara, Meru and Samburu followed by a two year stint at Offbeat Safaris as the operations manager in Nairobi. Joining Bush & Beyond in 2018 was a natural step and a “home coming” of sorts.. Nine years of varied expereince in the Kenyan tourism industry have given me a well balanced overall perspective of the mid-range to high end tourism industry in Kenya.

Tourism was a large part of my childhood and I grew up hosting guests and helping out in our family lodge whenever I could. This was intertwined with my other passion for animals, particularly African wildlife and horses. I completed my veterinary degree at Onderstepoort, University of Pretoria in 2015 and came home to Kenya where I built up a mixed practice clinic in Nanyuki, working with a large majority of our tourism partners. My journey took a new turn in 2023 when I was given the opportunity to join Bush and Beyond and continue a legacy of family, sustainability, conservation and community that I was deeply passionate about. I love the opportunity to share the incredible wild special places with people and embrace the core values that Bush and Beyond represents.
