Alice Dutton

Alice has worked in education and academia for over 15 years. She was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Birmingham before completing her training as a secondary school biology teacher.

Her teaching career took her from the UK to China, where she lived for 5 years. As an educator with deeply-held environmental values, she became Sustainability Leader for an international college in Shanghai, where she introduced new organisational processes to minimise environmental impact and guided cultural change. Now having returned to the UK, she is dedicated to finding her niche within the environmental and social impact space.

Alice has an MA in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge and a PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Birmingham.

Alice loves to experience new cultures and made the most of her time abroad, from open-water diving around the coral reefs of South-East Asia to hiking in the Himalayas, from protecting nesting sea turtles to horse trekking with Tibetan nomads.
