ROCK SPRINGS

Ashley is a Florida native from Jupiter and grew up exploring  natural areas in Florida with her family. She spends most of her time on the water paddling, camping and eating pub subs in the great outdoors. She loves being an eco guide because it’s the best way to spend a day- meeting new people, helping create lasting memories, sharing knowledge of the freshwater ecosystem and educating guests on conservation efforts to keep Florida beautiful! There’s no where else she’d rather be.

My name is Jeremy Ansley, I graduated from Louisiana Tech University in 2010 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Arts with a concentration in Psychology and History. I’ve since dedicated a lot of my life to learning about the human body, medicine, and how to care for the sick. I started my healthcare career in 2015 in EMS as an EMT for Volusia County, working and receiving my state certifications in Firefighting and Paramedicine in 2016. I continued my pursuit of higher education at an Osteopathic Medical School in 2018, completing the first year of graduate studies. In 2022, I graduated from Daytona State College with an Associate Degree in Nursing and currently work both as a nurse and tour guide. I’ve always loved spending time outdoors, and while professionally I’ve spent the past several years working in healthcare, I’ve grown even more to appreciate the experiences in life that bring joy to people. The path I’ve taken to get where I’m at today has been incredibly enlightening, and I’m grateful every day to guide adventures! There is so much that I enjoy about being a tour guide, but one of the best parts for me is just watching a family create beautiful memories together. I love all the laughter and smiles these magical places bring about and getting to take people on a “once in a lifetime” experience, I mean, come on, what’s not to love about being a tour guide?!

Megan is originally from Maryland close to DC, but is happy to call the Sunshine State home! She has a degree in Psychology and is now at a ministry school called Jesus School! She loves being in nature, whether it’s the springs, beach or mountains and is always down for an adventure. Megan’s favorite thing about guiding is seeing people experiencing the beauty of creation, connecting with each other and having fun! When she’s not in a kayak, you can find her singing, doing calligraphy, and exploring all that Florida has to offer.

Hi, I’m Brittany! I’m from Winter Garden, FL. I enjoy almost everything outdoors including hiking, camping, and kayaking. I love getting to know the people on my tours and sharing the excitement I have when encountering the wildlife we have in Florida. Before becoming a guide, I worked on a trail crew completing conservation projects around Colorado. I’m an environmental science major at UCF and hope to continue to work hands-on in the conservation/ecotourism field.
