Ikenna Azuike

Hi there. I’m Ikenna.

I grew up in Nigeria with parents who taught me how important it is to respect our surroundings. One of my fondest memories is of running around bare foot in the village my Dad comes from.

At age seven I moved to England. After studying Law and French Law at university, I worked as a lawyer for two international firms. Although I got to live and work in exciting places around the world, one result is that my carbon footprint is far from neutral!

Whilst standing in another airport queue, I had one of those - what on earth am I doing?- moments. I decided there and then that I wanted to do something more meaningful.

Reading more about climate change I quickly realised that it’s the poorest countries that will be hit hardest if we continue to live the way we do. Through Strawberry Earth I want to make a positive environmental change.
