Adam’s journey with animals began during his childhood on a farm, where he cared for horses, chickens, dogs, cats, and any other creature in need of a home. Several years later, his life took an unexpected turn when, at the age of 17, he volunteered at the Central Florida Zoo while pursuing his education in advertising.
This pivotal experience ignited a profound passion for animals and conservation within him. It led him to work in an animal show at a central Florida theme park and even engage in film projects involving animals. In early 2016, Adam found his calling when he joined Natural Encounters, Inc. (NEI), where he discovered a deep fascination with science-based animal training and mentorship.
Today, Adam dedicates himself to sharing his passion not only with animals, both human and non-human, but also with those he collaborates with at NEI. In addition to his work within NEI, Adam extends his expertise by assisting various zoological institutions across the country through NEI’s consulting programs.
Adam eagerly anticipates further growth and learning alongside the remarkable individuals he has the privilege to work with.
