Andrew Howley is Communications Director at Adventure Scientists, a nonprofit organization that equips partners with field data crucial to addressing environmental challenges. By recruiting, training, and managing a global network of specialized volunteers from the outdoor adventure community, they are uniquely able to gather difficult-to-obtain data at any scale, in any environment.
Over 11 years at National Geographic, Andrew produced and edited the Society’s home page, helped build one of the world’s largest social media followings on the flagship Facebook account, and wrote or edited hundreds of blog posts by and about explorers in the field. He’s walked 70 miles across the Sonoran Desert with conservationist Mike Fay, dived in the Pitcairn Islands with the National Geographic Pristine Seas team, and produced live daily coverage on Lee Berger and his team’s excavation of Homo naledi fossils in South Africa.
