Angie has been a prominent figure in outdoor adventure and travel journalism for over two decades, writing, editing, and photographing for a diverse range of print and digital publications worldwide. As an early advocate for sustainable surf travel and social commentary, she broke new ground by introducing these concepts to the Japanese surf magazine industry. One of her standout works was a 26-page cover feature for BLUE Magazine in 2009, where she explored India’s emerging west coast surf culture and spotlighted India’s first female surfer.

Her global adventures include documenting the rise of female surfing in Papua New Guinea and how wave riding is helping to reduce domestic violence in coastal communities. Angie has written about her travels through Colombia as a single mother with two kids, interviewed world champion surfers, surf pioneers, and innovators, and explored surfing’s cultural and environmental significance. She’s surfed the world’s longest left-hand wave in Peru, swum with giant manta rays in Indonesia, and encountered sharks in West Papua. Her work also extends to wildlife conservation, having nurtured orphaned elephants in Kenya alongside East Africa’s first female elephant keeper, Naomi Lechongoro. In Ladakh, Angie and her family delved into regenerative futures from local community perspectives.

Her adventurous spirit has taken her canoeing through Quebec’s great waterways, walking among neolithic memory sites in Bretagne, and sailing from France to San Sebastian. She previously trekked regularly with her family and dog in the French Pyrenees, before relocating to Finistère, Bretagne, where they are preparing to build a Polynesian-inspired wooden double canoe/catamaran.

Angie is particularly passionate about regenerative and sustainable tourism. Her interests also include travel anthropology, especially around food and place-making, as well as traditional ecological knowledge.

Her extensive body of work has appeared in leading publications such as The Australian, Yahoo!7, Australian Geographic, Nourish Magazine, BLUE Magazine, White Horses Magazine, Surfing Life Magazine Japan, Surfing World Magazine Japan, World Nomads, Thrive Global, and Daily Addict, among many others. She has also partnered with top travel and outdoor brands including Patagonia, TOMS, United By Blue, Banyan Tree, Inkaterra, Shangri-La, and more.

In addition, Angie co-authored and co-edited the first-ever English-language surfing guide to Japan, published by Outdoor Japan. In 2017, she embarked on an ambitious journey across Asia with her young family, attempting to overland from India to Japan, avoiding planes and plastics, while traversing the Nepali Himalayas.
