Yesterday, I had the wonderful privilege of giving the commencement address for the 2026 class at Ransom Everglades School. I cannot begin to express how special this was to me. These amazing young adults give me great hope for the future! #FutureLeaders

I was the luckiest manager in the universe to be responsible for this team of professionals because I never had to manage them! All I needed to do was let them do what they did better than anyone else and all it did was make the zoo and me so much better for it!

This is me and Savannah, Miami Metrozoo's first ambassador cheetah, more than 20 years ago. We had just finished appearing on the David Letterman Show and she liked to sit next to me on the bed while I watched Monday Night Football prior to flying back to Miami the next morning.

Thank you to the Doral Chamber of Commerce for hosting me at their luncheon today and allowing me to express my gratitude for all the kindness they have shown me in the wake of my announced retirement from Miami-Dade County. Looking forward to the next chapter with ZMF!

"Beauty and the Beast". The African crowned crane is often referred to as one of the most elegant and beautiful birds whereas the marabou stork is considered one of the ugliest. Both play an important role in maintaining healthy ecosystems in Africa.

Just returned from a dream vacation in NYC celebrating our 37th anniversary. We always stay at the same boutique hotel that we first stayed at 27 years ago. Since that 1st stay, we like to recreate the image we first took. Here is the 1st one compared to this year’s.

Today, Bubbles, a chimpanzee at Zoo Miami, celebrated her 63rd birthday, making her the oldest chimpanzee on record in ZIMS (Zoological Information Management Software) in North America! She was very happy with the special treats she received as part of the celebration!

I just wanted to give everyone a heads-up that if we were connected on LinkedIn, my account was hacked and deleted so I had to create a new one. If you want to reconnect with me, please reach out on LinkedIn and send me an invite! Thanks!

I felt incredibly lucky to capture this image of "Petaka," arguably the most famous wild puma in the world, during my recent visit to Patagonia. She has been well-documented by the BBC and Nat Geo in documentaries about this amazing "ghost cat." So proud and majestic!

I was honored to share my thoughts today on several network news interviews regarding the passing of the legendary Dr. Jane Goodall. I had the privilege of meeting her on several occassions. She is the definition of "a life well-lived." An incredible inspiration and role model.

This mongoose lemur was very focused on me as I walked by its habitat today. I love the intensity of this primitive primate's eyes!
