Oceana Staff

Julia holds a Master of Public Policy from American University with a concentration in international environmental policy and a B.S. in Marine Biology from the University of North Carolina Wilmington, where she studied the interactions between diamondback terrapins and the North Carolina blue crab fishery.

She began developing her love for the international side of ocean conservation when she spent a semester at James Cook University in Townsville, Australia and on a research trip with the University of Belize to the coral reefs at Calabash Caye. Most recently, Julia was the North Atlantic Right Whale National Mariner Engagement Coordinator on contract with NOAA Fisheries Office of Protected Resources. She previously worked at Oceana for almost three years as a marine scientist, fellow, and intern working on North Atlantic right whale conservation, fisheries management, and stopping the sale of shark fins in the US. She also gained experience in the public and private sectors with the US Government Accountability Office, The Roosevelt Group, and Signal Group. She enjoys hiking, traveling, and finding any excuse to be by the ocean!
