He also worked for an international organization in Mexico and Kenya for over three years where he had the opportunity to study the marine life of the Baja Peninsula and the wildlife of East Africa. Aside from wildlife biology, specific interests that he enjoys sharing with others include astronomy and wildlife photography. Kurt has been living in Jackson for eight years sharing his passion for the natural world with others. Laura McNeil - Naturalist  Laura recently graduated with a B.S. from the University of Denver in Business Administration with an emphasis in Tourism Management and a minor in Ecology. Her interest in Ecology developed from coursework and independent studies of the ecosystems of Costa Rica, Ecuador, Chile, and many parts of the United States. Growing up as the daughter of a naturalist she was dragged on many nature walks and around the local arboretum and Ohio State Parks. Little did she know that one day she would follow in her mother’s footsteps! Eventually she intends to earn a Masters of Science or an MBA in Green Business. She enjoys camping, hiking, biking, skiing, and is especially excited to share her passion for wildflowers and astronomy with the guests of Spring Creek Ranch. |
