About Us

John and Jessica are two of only a handful of people to camp with grizzly bears on the coast of Katmai National Park in Alaska.  They work to teach people that peaceful bear-human coexistence is possible and that grizzly bears are one of the most intelligent animals on the planet.

 

Jessica has a BA in Spanish from the University of Virginia, and a Masters in Women's Studies from the University of Arizona. She is also a certified Hatha Yoga Instructor.  She has worked as a university instructor & researcher, forensic examiner manager, professional translator, piano teacher, and yoga teacher.  When not writing about bears, she now works as a freelance book review writer.  She has also worked as a volunteer wildlife rehabilitator for over two years in Tucson, AZ.  She worked and trained at the Tucson Wildlife Center which specializes in the rehabilitation of predators.

John has a Master's in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas.  He was a senior integrated circuit design engineer for almost 10 years before quitting to move to Alaska.  He now does freelance engineering and runs his own international trade business.  Observing and protecting grizzly bears is his passion but he also enjoys inventing and theoretical physics.
