Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors consists of a unique blend of individuals who although came from drastically different backgrounds, all share a deeply rooted passion for paleontology and sharing that passion with others. For many, fossil collecting starts out as a hobby and for some, that hobby becomes the beat that drives their hearts forward. From the backwoods of South Carolina to the cities of the North, we are PPM and together, we will “Save the Whales.”
