About

Born in 1990 to a British mother and a Maltese father, Alice was raised for the majority of her life in Surrey's Woking. Her passion for comedy during her youth led her to participate in acting classes at Italia Conti and the Guildford School of Acting, and writing the school plays as she got older.

Alice's dream was to be a performer and write comedy, zookeeper but another ambition was fulfilled when she began volunteering at a Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in 2011, zookeeper while going to University. From then on, Alice was hooked on animal care and worked to take that path instead.

Alice began her career in Zookeeping in 2014 at ZSL London Zoo where she worked on 3 different animal departments. In 2015, she departed from the Zoo life to run a Children's Farm in North London but after a few years, chose to return to exotic animals, relocating to Costa Rica for 7 months to research Toucans and assist in Sloth research.

When she returned to England, zookeeper she made her way back to Zookeeping, and took on the role of a Carnivore Keeper at Shepreth Wildlife Park, where she stayed for nearly 5 years.

During this time, she established the Keeper Educational Exchange Programme (or KEEP), a not-for-profit organisation that allows Zookeepers from across the UK and beyond to gain knowledge from each other through spending time at other collections. She has presented on the programme at the ABWAK Symposium and zookeeper the BIAZA Annual Conference and the organisation is honoured to be BIAZA Endorsed and supported by Birdworld, in Surrey.

In 2023, searching for a creative outlet, Alice created the animal-comedy podcast: "Asshole Animals with Alice", that explores animal behaviour in a comedic fashion, with the help of experts across the world. In the initial months of her podcast, she was accompanied by nature creatives such as Chris Packham, Megan McCubbin, Lucy Lapwing, Jungle Jordan, Bertie Gregory and hopes to continue talking to hilarious experts about animals with a bad reputation.

Alice was also nominated for BIAZA's "Woman of the Year" award in 2023.
