Alumni

2021 MarineGEO Biodiversity Intern

Katie O'Donnell headshot

Katie earned her Master of Environmental Management degree (focused on Coastal Environmental Management) from Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment in 2019. Before graduating, she worked in environmental education teaching about marine ecosystems on both coasts of the United States. Those experiences greatly influenced her decision to pursue her graduate research analyzing public perceptions of sharks and their implications on wildlife conservation. Katie is particularly fascinated by the nexus of humans and the ocean environment with a keen interest in marine biodiversity, sharks, fisheries, and creative solutions. She is currently located in the San Francisco Bay Area and loves exploring the local ecosystems here.

The Marine Global Earth Observatory (MarineGEO), directed by the Smithsonian’s Tennenbaum Marine Observatories Network (TMON), is a network of partners researching biodiversity as the heart of healthy, productive, coastal ecosystems, where marine life and people are concentrated and interact most. MarineGEO marshals the Smithsonian’s leadership in discovery and convening power to advance knowledge useful to decision-makers in supporting innovative management and protection of marine life.
