Amy joined Gaia after 15 years spent working in both nature conservation and the arts: experiences which have dovetailed into her current role communicating stories of ecological and cultural revival. When not at her desk, she is connecting to the land by moving over, under and through it, whether river dipping or blackberry picking. This got out of hand in 2019 when Amy spent six months bicycling across North America; 8000 miles, 18 states and many dozen doughnuts later, she is living in Cornwall and can most often be found kayaking around the coast with her dog.
Amy recommends Feral by George Monbiot and Wild by Jay Griffiths, both of which she found to be formative books.
