Board of Directors

Executive Director

Marcia spent nearly 3 decades in the zoological field, working with a large array of different species. She was Tokitae’s caregiver from 1988 through 1995 and then again on the Friends of Toki team in 2023 – united to bring Tokitae home to a sanctuary in the Salish Sea. When Tokitae passed away in August of that year from kidney failure, Marcia made a promise to her that she would do everything she could to help her struggling family. This is the reason TokiSpirit exists today.

Secretary/Assistant Director

Christina brings more than 30 years of dedicated animal advocacy and ocean conservation experience to TokiSpirit with a focus on protecting whales, orcas and dolphins. Her background in youth art education and community engagement has shaped her long-standing commitment to environmental awareness and compassionate action. She also played a role in letter writing efforts for the Keiko project and friends of Toki project in support of humane treatment and freedom for captive cetaceans, dam removal and other important conservation issues.
