#29 - Dual Careers: interview with Misho Baxendale (Wildwood Ecology) on a career as both an ecologist and arboriculturalist

On today's podcast Richard discusses the opportunities and challenges of a dual-discipline career with his colleague, Misho Baxendale. Misho is a dual-qualified environmental consultant, working across both ecology and arboricultural disciplines working at Wildwood Ecology, based in Stroud. Misho openly discusses the skills needed in both disciplines including complimentary and crossover skills (e.g. field surveys, data capture and analysis), and specialist skills (e.g. AutoCAD, tree climbing and tree surveys for planning and development). The conversation also includes why Misho works with Wildwood Ecology in developing arboricultural services and the opportunities and challenges faced at the individual and company level.   Looking for a career with trees?
