As you navigate through the rest of your life, be open to collaboration. Other people and other people's ideas are often better than your own. Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.

I feel a great personal responsibility to share my knowledge of the ocean with others, to unveil the mysteries of this region and help people understand that even if they do not live near an ocean, or have never been to the ocean, they are still intimately connected to the ocean.
