We are excited to welcome Tommi Wolfe as the new Executive Director of the Gorilla Rehabilitation and Conservation Education (GRACE) Center. Tommi combines a lifelong passion for African conservation with decades of leadership strategy, organizational development and startup expertise. As Executive Director, she will combine her conservation passion and her leadership skills to help preserve the world’s largest primate, the Grauer’s gorilla.
Working with Jackson Mbeke, GRACE DRC Director, GRACE’s dedicated board of directors and advisors, and the GRACE team, Tommi will lead the organization as we continue to work to build a healthy, stable population of wild Grauer’s gorillas in the Democratic Republic of Congo and to establish this animal as a source of pride for the Congolese people.
Tommi is based in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and loves wildflowers, birding and hiking. She believes in creating win-win solutions and doing the right thing, even when it is hard.
Please join us in welcoming Tommi to the GRACE team!
Very best regards,
Laura Maloney
Chair, GRACE BOD
