Although I work as a consultant help prevent nuclear materials from entering the US, I am passionate about preserving wild habitat and the plants and animals which make our ecosystems unique. I am simply in love with the orphans at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust nursery and the work being accomplished by their staff.
When my nieces and nephews turn 16 years old, I ask them what where they would most like to go in the world...and I take them there. My niece Lauren recently fulfilled a lifelong dream of mine by choosing a safari in Kenya and Tanzania. We were able to visit the Sheldrick orphan nursery in Nairobi and speak with the keepers there. We also stayed with the wonderful people at Giraffe Manor and leaned what AFEW is doing to save the Rothschild giraffes.
