Tammy York’s career in public speaking, nature, and writing began with her childhood experiences of exploring the fields, creeks, and woods near her grandparent’s farm outside Connersville, Indiana. Her passion for the outdoors and “goofing off” brought her to Purdue University, where she graduated with a B.S. in Wildlife Management.

She quit her day job in order to spend more time with her family and pursue her passions. This lead her to start her business LandShark Communications, which provides marketing and public relations expertise for businesses.
