Exciting Opportunity!


I am extremely pleased to announce that I have been chosen as one of forty individuals in Canada to take part in the Ocean Bridge (Atlantic) program for 2020-2021! This program is put on by Ocean Wise in British Columbia and is funded by Canada Service Corps and the Government of Canada.

"Ocean Bridge connects Canadian youth from coast to coast to coast empowering them to make a difference towards ocean conservation. Each year a national team of 40 youth (ages 18-30) form a national team engaged in co-creating and delivering service projects for their home communities and two immersive expeditions to address Ocean Health and Ocean Literacy in Canada. 

Ocean Bridge is comprised of three key elements to support youth as they adopt a culture of service for our oceans: 
  • Community & Capacity Building
  • Ocean Health Extended Service
  • Ocean Literacy Extended Service" (Ocean Wise)
As part of the Atlantic team I will get the privilege of traveling to Seaport, Newfoundland for 10 days this July and to Halifax for 5 days in February 2021! All expenses paid. I am beyond excited and happy to get chosen for this amazing program. The program starts in March and so I will keep you all updated with the future projects I will be organizing for Ocean Bridge and posting ways that you can help preserve our beautiful waterways!
