Carey's Story
Life
After living and working in United Arab Emirates for 6.5 years, I am back to living on the Pacific coast in Newport, Oregon with my cat Gypsy.
While in UAE, I was working for the Environment Agency in a houbara bustard (thats a type of bird) conservation program. The most exciting part of living there was meeting people from so many different countries and cultures. Its wonderful to learn about our differences and also what we have in common.
I've also been able to travel alot and see some beautiful parts of the world, full of breathtaking sites and interesting people. But what I am most thankful f...Expand for more
or is my supportive family and amazing friends. No matter where I go, I know I have people backing me and waiting for me to come home.
Workplace
Work has been great for me..have gone from being a Beach Ranger in Edmonds, to working with walruses and beluga whales in Tacoma, to taking care of sea birds in Newport, Oregon, to breeding houbara bustards in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Wherever I have been, animals have been in the spotlight. I've enjoyed all my jobs and look forward to where my career will lead me next.
UPDATE: I returned to Newport Oregon in 2007 to manage the seabird aviary at the Oregon Coast Aquarium
