Celina Chien (@celinaxchien) is a multi-hyphenate (read: does many things and is incredible at all of them) environmentalist local to London. You’ll often find her snapping shots of rare birds in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta ranges of Colombia, or Leopards in the Okavango Delta in Botswana. When she’s not doing that, she’s busy being a finalist (and now judge) of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year by the Natural History Museum of London for documenting Orangutans in captivity. When she’s not doing that, she’s swinging around her considerable (and growing) clout to bring Dolce & Gabbana to the conservation table, inspiring them to donate a part of their profits from their sales of leopard print products during her exhibition with them to conserving the habitats of.. yep, you guessed it, leopards. Oh, and sitting on the board of Panthera & Girls Who Click plus the Council of Reserva: The Youth Land Trust. Before she did any of those things, she was at university studying a Masters of Tropical Forest Ecology. Before that? Oh, not much. Just a TEDx talk at 17. Now, she’s delving into her love of acting and looking to take her career from behind the camera and onto the screen: acting and presenting. So… wait. If she’s a scientist, environmentalist & conservationist, savvy corporate influencer, wildlife photographer, public speaker, actor and presenter, isn’t she like… the next David Attenborough? At just 24 and with a long career ahead of her, the smart money’s on yes. -- SHOW NOTES: Celina Chien home page - www.celinachien.com LEOPARD: Honouring the Muse -https://www.celinachien.com/leopard Instagram & Twitter Handle - @celinaxchien
