Events such as beach cleans, seaweed searches and an IEMA-led Glasgow Claypit event are but a few of the events I have attended and contributed towards – recognising the importance of citizen-science projects. On a more personal level, I enjoy living an active and outdoor lifestyle, including hiking, walking, rowing and going to the gym. If I'm not working in the office or my home, you will usually find me out hiking some hill or Munro.

About Marie-Louise

I've just started working in Sweco’s Environmental and Sustainability team as a Graduate Environmental Planning Consultant. I originally studied Psychology at university before working in the pharmaceutical sector for a couple of years. I wanted to change career path to work in the environmental sector and I’m very happy I did, because I love what I do now! I like to think that my varied background hopefully gives me a multidisciplinary approach to solving problems and coming up with innovative solutions. Outside of work I enjoy being outdoors hillwalking, climbing, or running, which is probably why I fell in love with Scotland and its many hills when I moved there.
