Nik has been coming to Sanibel since 1977, first with his parents (who now reside on Sanibel), and now with his wife, Elissa, and sons, Jivan and Suraj. SCCF’s Education Department the Sanibel Sea School fills a void Nik experienced as a young visitor to Sanibel. Nik was aware of the importance of the nature and ecology of Sanibel but wished for ways to learn more and supplement walks, paddles, and bike rides. Nik is delighted to serve as a board member to support SCCF and Sanibel Sea School’s efforts to help fill that void and advance broader understanding of the importance of ocean conservation.
