Born and raised in the heart of the Alps, Sabina spent much of her childhood outdoors in the woods and mountains of southern Germany, often all day long and by herself, fascinated by all the wonders to be discovered. When it was time to go to university, Sabina was drawn to study biology with a focus on ecology and conservation, to learn more about nature and contribute to the preservation of her beloved mountain ecosystem. She went on to obtain an M.S. in Biology at the University of Regensburg in Germany, never missing a chance to be outdoors and travel, and the more remote the destination, the better. In addition to the Alps, her research projects took her to the boreal forest of Eastern Siberia, the savanna of Burkina Faso, and the tropical rain forest of the Peruvian Amazon.

In these remote places where few others ventured, Sabina felt most at ease and thrived in her work. Her love for wilderness and nature eventually led her to the west coast of Canada, where she found her passion for guiding in the Great Bear Rainforest of British Columbia in 2017, leading bear-viewing tours and teaching about the ecology of this special ecosystem since.

When she isn't guiding, Sabina likes to hike to remote places. A recent highlights was her successful attempt to climb a mountain in the British Columbia wilderness, far from any trails. This multi-day adventure in the roughest terrain she had ever explored, and the reward it held, epitomizes why she loves working as a naturalist guide: to give others the opportunity to experience rare moments in nature and create lifelong memories.
