Anna White, Earthwatch team one

My name is Anna White. I am a married 35 year old Irish national originally from Bannow Bay, Co Wexford, Republic Of Ireland (of 1166 Landing Of The Normans fame), who has lived in London for the past fourteen years, where I work as an Oracle Financials Analyst Programmer in London. Having enjoyed travelling with my husband, Dave Kiely, to various developing countries in recent years and gained many fantastic memories of places from Santiago de Cuba to Beijing to Timbuktu, I decided that it was time not only to give something back to the amazing earth upon which we live, but to address my life long desire to work with animals and perhaps to conquer my phobia of snakes along the way. The Earthwatch project in Madagascar proved to be the perfect choice as it also enabled me to experience some of the country's distinctive wildlife and landscapes at first hand, and hopefully help to ensure the fossa's survival.
