What excites you about your career here at CLR?

I am so passionate about animal conservation and the important work that zoos do, so being part of a firm that supports zoological institutions by designing world-class exhibits is nothing short of my dream job. The people here are pretty great, too!

What do you like about exhibit design?

I truly believe that the best way to get people to care about animals is to provide opportunities for impactful connections that they would be otherwise unable to have. Figuring out ways to best facilitate that for a diverse range of animal species is an exciting and meaningful challenge.

What do you enjoy doing on the weekend?

I’m an animal care volunteer at a marine mammal rescue center on the weekend, where I help with the rehabilitation of sick and injured seals and sea lions. It’s hard work but so rewarding! When I’m not scrubbing seal poop, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our fluffy white dog.

Tell us something fun or funny about yourself that most people don’t know.

For a short time during college, I worked in the Entertainment department at Disney World and operated giant puppets in the parade at Animal Kingdom! I was also really good friends with Pluto…
