Jessica Tinker

An insatiable curiosity and a deep appreciation for the wonders of the natural world has led Jess Tinker to a life of exploration. That spirit has allowed her to work in diverse fields from animal behavior research, software, and wilderness therapy to filmmaking and remote science and expedition logistics in Antarctica. In everything she does, Jess finds joy making order out of chaos and learning from the intricate systems that make up our world.

 

Having an academic background in cognitive science, Jess is also deeply interested in the intersection of our minds and the environment and believes in the transformational effects of experiencing that connection firsthand. Her interest in this field has led her to develop perspectives on the link between nature and the human mind, which she brings to her work with Lindblad.

 

Although she is a southern girl from Georgia, Jess loves to rough it in the cold, or any extreme environment - especially if there is a good view. Jess is a full-time nomad and currently divides her time between Florida, Oregon, and traveling to the world's beautiful remote places.
