Mike Paredes

Mike Paredes serves Dazzle Africa as current Board President and leads guests on adventures to Zambia as a volunteer Safari Director.

During his down time from Dazzle, he flies as a Captain for United Airlines.  Along with his wife Nancy, also a volunteer for Dazzle, Mike enjoys introducing intrepid travelers to the wonders of the wild, particularly the first time they see elephants.

He deeply appreciates the generosity and expertise of local guides, their wealth of knowledge and the sharing of their lives with visitors. He believes in the necessity of wild places and feels privileged to be able  to work with others stateside and in Zambia to help protect such a precious place as the South Luangwa.
