About Us

Join Us in Marine Science Class!

On Monday, May 1 at 9 AM The Drew Community is very excited to welcome distinguished alum Shannon Murphy, Marine Biologist and member of the Drew Class of 2011. She will be visiting the very class that inspired her education and career! Join the class virtually via Zoom.
  
In her current position with Conservation International, she is a leader in her field, working on large-scale marine management solutions that benefit both people and nature. Shannon leads the organization's Seascapes program which focuses on how we can balance the protection of nature and sustainable use and production of our coasts and oceans. The Seascapes approach builds coalitions along government, civil society and the private sector to improve ocean governance at all scales, working with multiple sectors to maintain healthy ecosystems for people.

In her virtual visit to a class of Mary Kerr’s Marine Biology students, Shannon will talk about her current research as it relates to what the students have been learning, and discuss her journey after Drew: her studies, internships, and entrance into the professional field, as well as important lessons learned and practices she's developed along the way. 

Interested in hearing her story? All Drew Community Members are welcome to join us via Zoom at 9 a.m. PST. Zoom link
