Bobby has always been extremely passionate about working to conserve endangered species and thus graduated from the University of Maine with a B.S. in Wildlife Ecology in the fall of 2019. He has worked extensively with mammals, amphibians and reptiles; but has a soft spot for seabirds since monitoring tern and puffin colonies in his home state of Maine in 2018.

Before joining ARC in early 2021, Bobby was a seasonal technician with Save Our Shearwaters on Kauaʻi where he was introduced to native Hawaiian birds through a rehabilitation setting. Bobby is thrilled to be at ARC working with Hawaiian endangered seabirds as he progresses his career in marine ornithology.
