Welcome! Thanks for following me on my new “edventure.” I’m AJ, a college student, born and raised in Miami. Ever since I can remember, I have loved anything and everything in nature. When I was little, all my favorite books were about bugs, reptiles, or dinosaurs. I watched all the Discovery Channel and Animal Planet shows on repeat. I memorized facts and would tell anyone who would listen all about my favorites. One thing is for sure, I was never afraid of any animal. When classmates would run away from a snake, lizard, or frog, I’d volunteer to catch it and then give the teacher and kids a lesson. A few years ago, I volunteered to give a presentation at my former elementary school’s Career Day and the rest is history. It was exhilarating to teach kids of all ages about animals that they were scared of or grossed out by at first. Nature Edventures will bring a variety of educational adventures to children in Miami. My plan is to present at birthday parties, schools, or even via Zoom. Thanks for following and let’s go on an edventure!
