I’m racing the 2024 Falmouth Road Race and raising money to support ocean research! I’m a marine biologist who has had a fascination with the ocean since a very young age. I grew up in a small beach town in CT going to the beach, fishing, and exploring the coastline. As an adult, I’ve worked in oceans all around the world and seen some of the amazing effects that marine research has on the oceans and local ecosystems. I chose to run this race for charity because it gives me a chance to combine two of my favorite things… the ocean and running! Running this race has been on my bucket list of events, and being able to run it and also make an impact on a field that I work in and am passionate about makes it even better.
Description
Our Ocean. Our Planet. Our Future.
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) is a world-class community of researchers, engineers, technologists and students working together to find solutions to critical environmental challenges facing humanity and our ocean planet.
Our team of runners are also working together to support ocean research at WHOI. As we all join together to RACE FOR THE OCEAN, you help WHOI place big bets on science to accelerate the search for solutions to climate change, keep ocean habitats healthy and marine life thriving, and explore new possibilities for human lives and livelihoods.
By supporting me, you are also supporting solutions-based science by giving WHOI scientists and engineers the flexibility they need to identify and pursue critical research priorities in a changing ocean. Together, we can create an ocean of possibilities!
