We believe art and science can come together and create a powerful conservation message. We asked Elise to join our art and media team because of her passion for the oceans and her incredible artistic work. You will be seeing a lot of Elise’s art in our curriculum packets and other educational materials. We are thrilled to welcome her to the team and excited to share her shark story with you.
