I was interested in joining the Explorers Club for several years primarily because of the expertise of club members and the network of support that the club can provide. My current research has taken me to a remote area of Kenya and I believe my future research career will involve a substantial amount of travel and exploration. Conducting scientific research in remote locations can be very challenging and I believe the knowledge and resource base available to Explorers Club members will make my research more efficient and allow me to be a more productive member of the conservation community.

I have dreamed of exploration since my earliest nights staring up at the stars and dreaming of all the worlds to explore. I focused my early efforts in high school and college studying the next world to be explored, Mars. In addition to some independent research projects I worked with the Mars Exploration Rovers and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Missions to explore the Red Planet remotely.

There is a picture in Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki of the author planning his famous Pacific expedition around an old globe with the Arctic explorer Peter Freuchen. The caption places the globe in the ground floor of The Explorers Club. When I read that book two years ago, I knew I wanted to go there.
