" My interest in the national parks began as a child on summer vacations in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. In college, I studied Botany, Ichthyology, Mammology, and Ornithology, and I began working in Yellowstone as a summer seasonal guide 25 years ago. I have also worked in Sequoia, the Everglades, and Alaska as a naturalist guide. Whether it's beachcombing in Florida, birding in the Everglades, or hiking in the Tetons, as long as I'm in nature, I'm where I want to be."

" As a young girl, I dreamed of traveling to faraway places. When I was 12, my mother took me to Europe. What an adventure we had! As the years passed I continued to travel to new places. I crossed paths with extraordinary people from all walks of life. Those we meet along the way can change our path or help us view things from a different perspective. It was that unusual twist in the road that led me to becoming a Tour Director. The journey is still new and exciting with every tour I take, and I love not knowing what is around the next corner. Sometimes the unexpected is the best gift of all."

" Born in Salisbury, England, I left England at the age of nine and ended up in Los Angeles. Some of my hobbies include travel, flying (I have my license to fly small, single-engine planes), gardening (growing my own fruits and veggies is awesome), and landscaping (it gives me a chance to learn about different trees and plants). My advice to travelers is to come with an open mind and look forward to learning new things. What makes other places so special is that they're not home!"
