My name is Zoie (she/her) and I just graduated from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa this past semester. I earned my bachelor's degree in biology and a minor in public health. While doing my undergraduate education, I was a research assistant for the Research Corporation of the University of Hawaiʻi, I worked under the Hawaiʻi Ocean Time Series and under Angel White's phytoplankton lab. During my studies, I developed a passion for different uses of seaweed and the way food systems operate. I am beyond excited to work under Symbrosia to learn and contribute to making a difference for our planet.
