Get to know Amy

What are a few items on your bucket list?

A safari or tour focused on an elephant’s herd (aka their “parade”) to learn about their communication and care for each other, as well as their interactions with humans and property along their migratory path. Growing up, I always dreamed of working for Disney. Checked this off in 1995!

What do you like to do outside work?

Working—and relaxing!—in my yard, running, reading, and I’m finally learning to enjoy cooking (but still with fairly easy recipes.)

Who is your biggest hero?

My grandmother—Mum—was a significant inspiration to me. Her first career was a national park ranger at Mesa Verde for many years; an incredibly intelligent women, she later become a middle school teacher. She was an environmentalist, feminist, and fierce animal advocate.
