Brought up in Lybster, a small fishing village in the far north of Scotland, the sea has always been a huge part of Carrie’s life. Her passion for marine life led to her completing a Masters of Research in Marine Biology and set her on a career path that has never ventured far from the sea.
Carrie is an experienced field ornithologist, specializing in seabird ecology, which has given her the opportunity to live and work on several beautiful and remote islands. She has studied the population ecology of puffins, shags, and gannets in Scotland; blue-footed boobies in Mexico; and albatrosses on Bird Island, South Georgia.
A restless traveler, Carrie is happiest when she has her binoculars around her neck and a map in her hand. She cannot wait to join you on your polar adventure, where together you can explore the landscapes and marvel at the creatures that call the polar regions home.
