Owner/Operator

I'm always on the lookout for fun things in nature that surround me. From wildlife, to plants, to patterns in the ocean's waves, there's always something fascinating! After obtaining my degree in Marine Biology, I earned a spot first as a Naturalist in Victoria's ecotourism industry, and from there I worked towards, and obtained a 60 Ton Master's ticket. After acquiring experience as a captain for vessels big and small, here I am now running the show at Neptune Wildlife Tours! You'll find me at the helm of every tour, always on the lookout for some cool wildlife to observe but also sharing fun facts about each organism. I've got a tremendous amount of knowledge on the local marine ecosystems and I can't wait to share it with you!

With a love for the ocean at such a young age, I was always passionate for sharing fun facts and discussing my interests- whales and dolphins.

As I grew up, my passion narrowed on to the Southern Resident Killer Whales. Once I dove into this path of sharing their stories, and how we can help this endangered species, I came to the realization that these orcas are a part of a much larger ecosystem within the Salish Sea. That all beings within our oceans are interconnected and important- from the kelp, to the salmon, to the seals and sea lions, and humpback whales!

I would love to share the beauty of this world with you on social media and in our office!
