Overview
Fun and friendly hands-on nature education, that comes to you! I teach about reptiles of the world and what makes them such special animals, with my snakes, tortoises, and lizards. Kids adore meeting all the animals!
Besides reptile presentations, I also offer a Wilderness Survival class for kids and other nature topics.
I’m a wilderness guide in the beautiful Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge and a former park ranger with the Georgia DNR. I love giving kids of all ages an awesome and memorable experience!

What to Expect
I teach about reptiles while letting people pet multiple different species from around the world.
About
I grew up loving reptiles and would catch them and read about them as often as I could! My love of nature led me to study Wildlife Management in college at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. After my studies, I began work as a park ranger for the Georgia DNR. Over the past ten years I have worked as a park ranger (naturalist) at Laura S. Walker State Park, Skidaway Island State Park, Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area, and Mendocino Woodlands State Park. Currently my career path has led me to be a wilderness guide in the beautiful Okefenokee Swamp! I take visitors into the National Wildlife Refuge on 24 foot skiffs and teach them all about the Swamp.
Additional Booking Notes
If the weather is too hot or too cold, I will need to have an indoor air conditioned/heated space to give a show, for the safety of my animals.
