I'm a 24 year old, 2nd year Coastal Environmental Management master's student from Seattle, WA.  I received my BA in Environmental Policy from Pomona College  in Claremont, CA.  My strong aversion to environmental injustice and my inexpressible love for sailing, diving, surfing, fishing, and all other water sports drew me to Duke where I am completing my Master's Project on the bio-economics of mercury contaminated fisheries.  My extensive time traveling, especially in the Caribbean, and my interest in all things marine led me to take this sojourn in Panama.
