I’m looking for a Personal Assistant to help me manage my day-to-day life as I prepare to return to university next year to study Wildlife Ecology and Conservation Science.
A Bit About Me: I’m deeply passionate about nature, wildlife, and the environment. I love exploring Bristol’s estuaries, parks, and woodlands, gardening, and engaging in conservation efforts. I’m also very creative—I enjoy painting, drawing, willow weaving, music, reading, and writing. My interests are always evolving, and I love picking up new hobbies or rediscovering old ones. I am currently adjusting to life using a wheelchair, and I’m determined to stay active, keep up with my passions, and find and connect with a community of like-minded people.
I’d love support in staying socially engaged, meeting people who share my interests, and navigating accessible activities and events. Another important part of my life is my beloved Hahn’s Macaw, who takes up a lot of my time and focus.
