Drs. Birkenbach and Oremus are excited to congratulate Master of Marine Policy (MMP) student Erinn Bell on her successful Analytical Paper defense! Erinn gave a stellar presentation of her work on marine mammal strandings along the U.S. Northeast coast to a conference room (and Zoom) full of friends, colleagues, and family. More celebrations to follow at graduation, then Erinn will focus on preparing her paper for journal submission.

More happy news: Erinn has accepted a position working as an Education Strategic Planning Specialist in collaboration with NOAA’s Office of Education. Stay tuned!
