Abby has had a love of the ocean since day one. If she ever went missing as a child, you could guarantee to find her somewhere near fish, even if it was the fish counter in a supermarket! That passion continued throughout her life, becoming a diver at 15, a dive master at 19 and a dive instructor at 22.
Abby studied Animal Behaviour at University in the UK, focussing on fish behaviour. After moving to Egypt to work in the Red Sea as a marine biologist, she completed her Master’s degree in Science Communication over the next few years. She moved to Australia in 2013 and has worked for Reef Teach ever since. Her favourite animal in the world are sharks and she doesn’t care what kind! As long as it has teeth and a fin, she’s happy.
