Anna’s passion for birds of prey was first kindled at The Raptor Trust’s wildlife rehabilitation facility in Millington, NJ, where she volunteered and worked starting in 2009. After training with Cornell’s Raptor Program through college, she completed a graduate degree in Raptor Biology at Boise State University, studying the social behavior of Striated Caracaras in the Falkland Islands. Today, she oversees the team of raptor education ambassadors at VINS, prioritizing welfare, choice, and natural history in their care and training. In 2018 she became a Certified Professional Bird Trainer through the International Animal Trainers Certification Board, and currently serves on the Board of Directors of the International Association of Avian Trainers and Educators.
