| Personal background |

Born in 1990 to a UK mother and a Maltese
father, Alice grew up for most of her life in Woking, Surrey.
Her love of comedy growing up
saw her to participate in acting classes at Italia Conti and the Guildford School
of Acting, and authoring the school plays as she got
older.
 Alice's dream
was to write comedy and be a performer, but another dream was fulfilled when she began volunteering
at a Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in 2011, while going
to University. From then on, Alice was captivated by animal care and worked to pursue that career instead.
 Alice started
her Zookeeping journey in 2014 at ZSL London Zoo where she worked on 3 different animal departments.
In 2015, she left the Zoo life to run a Children's Farm
in North London but after a few years, decide to go back
to exotic animals, relocating to Costa Rica for 7 months
to research Toucans and help with Sloth research.
When she returned to England, she returned to Zookeeping,
and took on the role of a Carnivore Keeper at Shepreth Wildlife Park, where she stayed for nearly 5 years.
 During this time, she founded the
Keeper Educational Exchange Programme (or KEEP), a non-profit organisation that allows Zookeepers from across the UK and beyond to gain knowledge from each other
through spending time at other collections.
She has spoken about the programme at the ABWAK Symposium and the BIAZA Annual Conference and the organisation is honoured to
be BIAZA Endorsed and sponsored by Birdworld,
in Surrey.
 In 2023, searching for
a creative outlet, Alice launched the animal-comedy podcast: "Asshole Animals with Alice", that explores animal behaviour in a comedic fashion, with the
help of experts across the world. In the initial months of her
podcast, she was joined by nature creatives such as Chris Packham, zookeeper Megan McCubbin, Lucy
Lapwing, Jungle Jordan, Bertie Gregory and aims to continue interviewing hilarious experts about animals with a bad reputation.
 Alice was also shortlisted
for BIAZA's "Woman of the Year" award in 2023.
