Sassy "Boss Baby"
Florida born and TN raised, Sassy is the true definition of southern hospitality. Since early college, Sassy has been a tour guide for many different demographics of people all over the United States. With a background in Wildlife and Fisheries and Soil Conservation, Sassy’s passion lives within the ecosystem of the springs. Her vision is to spread the word of conservation in an entertaining and educational manner that captures the attention of people worldwide. Sassy says, “Let’s start the conversation of conservation and be good to each other.”
Jacob "The Quiet One"
No matter if it’s the mountains of East Tennessee or the Springs of Florida, Jacob always finds himself one with nature. Jacob’s view on nature is that it brings a peace from within that can promote self healing and self awareness. Jacob has always has a spiritual bond with the great outdoors and also has a background in Wildlife and Fisheries. If Jacob isn’t at the springs, he spends his time being a full time dad to three awesome kids he shares with his wife Sassy. Together, they hope to inspire their children to also have a love for all things wild.
Brad "Bradzilla"
Brad grew up in the wilds of Southwest Virginia where his idea of fun was anything involving dirt, water, and decisions that made his mom nervous – whether is was Kayaking, Fishing, Hunting, or Camping. He also spent 8 years in TN, fishing Old Hickory Lake so often that the fish probably had his picture on a “Most Wanted” poster. Brad and his wife Susanna moved to Florida in 2022, where Brad pursues his love for the great outdoors by kayaking daily. Brad is an incredible wildlife photographer and self-proclaimed, “Manatee Whisperer”. When Brad isn’t leading a tour, he spends his days as Silver’s Springs River Patrol protecting our wildlife and educating guests.
