Over the years, Jamie has been an active sportwoman traveling all over the world for incredible fishing and hunting opportunities. One of her more memorable ventures outside of the series was her appearance on three episodes of ‘Safari Hunter’s Journal ‘, where she first experienced hunting plains game in South Africa. The highlight (and adrenaline rush!) of that trip would be when Jamie and her fellow adventurers were charged by a two year old rhinoceros who was trying to protect his mother. She had just been darted with a sedative in order to obtain DNA that could later be used in prosecuting poachers. Jamie is just as passionate about conservation of habitat and wildlife as she is about hunting and fishing.
Jamie is multi-talented as a speaker at conferences and seminars. She has a passion and dedication to her sport and is available for speaking engagements, filming and appearances.
