Skye Wishart

Skye Wishart is a journalist with a passion for science writing. A degree in biochemistry and plant genetics led her first to work in marine research in the South Island; then, after a sojourn in science journal publishing, she turned to the written word, and has been researching and writing ever since. She is also studying for a Masters in Environmental Management, diving deep into how we can become better custodians of the natural world now and into an uncertain future.Skye lives in the Western Bay of Plenty, with her husband and young family. She loves the outdoors: particularly exploring hiking trails and ocean swimming.
