Bio:
Katie studied Natural Sciences at Durham University and went on to work as a research assistant at The Natural History Museum in London (where she contributed to a book on Snakes, and finding new frogs in Cameroon). Always interested in photography, she honed her skills while working in several research assistant positions with reptiles and amphibians all over the world. After filming a short documentary with her brother in 2012 she fell in love with filmmaking and since then has been pursuing her passion for science communication and general appreciation of the natural world, with a particular focus on reptiles and amphibians.
