Why I am Racing for the Ocean
I'm very excited to be running the Falmouth Road Race for the fifth time! This year marks my second time running for Team WHOl and raising money to support oceanographic research.
Since working at WHOl, I have been able to witness first hand their groundbreaking research, which helps the need to better understand and protect our oceans. These experiences have been invaluable, and after recently returning from a field season at Palmer Station in Antarctica, I will be continuing my contributions through lab work at WHOl this summer, as well as participating in a research cruise.
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!
