Creature Quest is Canada’s smallest CAZA accredited zoo. I’ve been involved since the day my parents opened the company in 2010. Every Saturday I would be a part of leading engaging and educational presentation with live animals at children's birthday parties, summer camps, and more. Once I could drive I was leading shows on my own in front of crowds of dozens of eager kids or hundreds of people in an auditorium setting. The skills I cultivated here have transcribed to my positive leadership style that keeps people engaged and excited to work. And before you ask - no. The movie "We Bought a Zoo" is not a documentary of my life. Pretty close though!
