Randy J.

Manager

I have been the Zoo Manager since 1999. I have a B.S. degree in Zoology from Southern Illinois University. I have over 30 years of experience with animals, and my goal has always been to make the animals lives the best as possible here at the Zoo, and to help make the Zoo a destination point of Aurora.
