Hi, my name is Jack, I am a second year Marine and Natural History Photography student studying at Falmouth University. I’m in charge of social media and connections, as well as being the leading official photographer for the expedition. I have always been completely indulged by exploration and adventure, with this came my interest in wildlife and the natural world; depicting it through photography became my passion.
My excitement for this expedition is indescribable; I’ve always wanted to explore the rainforest, to see and listen to the diversity of life there – as a birding enthusiast and a bird ringing trainee, I’m particularly excited to see the abundance of avian species and their interaction with epiphytes. I have worked as a voluntary photojournalist for the Wildlife Trust, and I am one of the Photo Editors for the University Life Magazine.
