Hey y’all! I’m Jenny, the owner of Okefenokee & Satilla Expeditions LLC, professional Naturalist, Guide, and lover of wild places. I was born and raised near the Satilla, on the northern side of Okefenokee Swamp, in the little town of Waresboro, Georgia. My ancestors were Wiregrass Pioneers who settled around the Satilla and the Okefenokee in the early to mid 1800s. My parents were both local schoolteachers and they instilled in me a love of the Great Outdoors.
I studied Biology at Waycross College, Wildlife Management at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College, and worked for 7 years as a Naturalist with the Georgia DNR at Laura S. Walker State Park and Skidaway Island State Park. After some time in the California State Parks, I returned home and was the Lead Naturalist for Okefenokee Adventures and the Okefenokee Swamp Park.
I currently serve on the Board of Trustees of the Okefenokee Heritage Center and when I’m not out paddling or boating, I love to spend time with my husband and our pets, and play D&D with our friends!
My passion is sharing the amazing ecology and history of the Okefenokee Swamp and the rivers that surround it with my guests!
