Charlie loved maths and astronomy when she was young, and always dreamed of being an astronaut. She studied Astrophysics at university, and went on to work in data analysis and digital marketing for an adventure travel company, selling trips to the ends of the earth (but unfortunately not beyond!).
Charlie has always enjoyed photography, trying to capture the atmosphere of a moment, whether that’s a climber on a sea cliff or Dale wrestling with cladding midway through their van conversion. She works as a freelance outdoors and events photographer in her ‘spare’ time (not that there is ever much of that!). She also organises an annual women’s climbing festival, combining her passion for climbing with her love of spreadsheets and all things organisation.
She has been climbing for over seven years, and enjoys nothing more than being outside on the rock, whether on a sunny Spanish sport climb, an alpine mountain, or a rugged British sea cliff.
