Maya Plass

​My passion for the ocean began on childhood walks to Hilbre Island, exploring rocky shores, discovering marine life and watching seals emerge from the sea. Those early experiences sparked a lifelong love of the natural world, leading me to study marine biology and build a career connecting people with our ocean.

​

From founding a marine education business to working with charities, researchers and broadcasters, I've spent my career using storytelling, communications and community engagement to inspire curiosity and action for nature.

​

Today, alongside my writing and broadcasting, I work freelance with organisations and communities on communications, engagement and environmental projects that bring people together, strengthen connections with nature and create lasting positive impact.
