Born and raised in Florida, Court spent much of his youth outdoors fostering a strong love and appreciation for nature and wildlife. This fascination led him to attend the University of Florida, where he received his bachelor’s, master’s and PhD degrees in both Ecotourism and Entomology. As the creator of his own major, he was able to design his coursework, research and teaching to focus on, as he puts it, “conserving the world through nature and educational travel experiences.” Throughout his graduate school career, Court also ran a small ecotourism company through which he planned and led more than 60 expeditions to ecotourism destinations on all seven continents.

Today, Court continues to guide the world’s best nature expeditions with Natural Habitat Adventures, while also heading up Nat Hab’s sustainability efforts, elevating it to become one of the most sustainable and eco-conscious travel enterprises in the world. Court leads Nat Hab's “Green Team,” the company's enterprise to conserve the natural world through best practices in sustainability, both in our office and field operations. The Green Team facilitates opportunities for the entire company to innovate, inspire and make meaningful contributions to environmental leadership on a daily basis.

Like many others on the Nat Hab team, one of Court's greatest thrills is to help people travel to extraordinary wilderness areas that make lifelong impressions. When Court isn’t planning and leading adventures, you can find him hiking on one of Colorado’s beautiful trails, fly fishing in a nearby canyon, or working on his photography website.
