Chris Dunham, Sales Account Manager

Chris is an avid traveler, having visited all 50 States, over 50 countries and all 7 continents! She first traveled to the Antarctic more than 13 years ago. Instantly hooked, she switched careers, leaving the software industry to work in the Adventure Travel industry. Chris' expedition to the North Pole in the summer of 2007 will be her 11th to the polar regions.

"My position at Quark allows me to balance my tech background with my love for the polar regions; there is nothing I enjoy as much as talking to clients about Antarctica!"

"Antarctica is special to me, because it is the most pristine, unspoiled part of our planet. My most amazing wildlife encounters there have been with whales - Minkes swimming below my kayak, a fin whale rolling on it's side and looking straight up at me as I leaned over the rail - and orcas spy-hopping around our Zodiac."

Chris' Top Tip: Wear lightweight polypropylene glove liners under your warmer gloves; you'll be able to leave the liners on while taking photographs.
