I will be giving some public talks on shark science and conservation this summer. Here’s how to find me!
Tuesday, July 7th, Silver Spring, Maryland (Wheaton Library, 5:30 P.M.)
This talk is kid friendly, and is an overview of shark science and conservation, as well as my own story. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, and I will have copies of my book “Why Sharks Matter” for sale afterwards. More details:
Wednesday, July 8th, New Orleans, Louisiana. (Big Couch Performing Arts Center, 7:00 P.M.)
Along with other experts who will be in New Orleans attending the Joint Meeting of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists, join me for a fun night of science outreach at the Big Couch Performing Arts Center. We’ll give a quick overview of our scientific research, and then the Big Couch’s resident improv comedy performers will create a show based on our work! I will have a few copies of my book “Why Sharks Matter” for sale afterwards. More details and free tickets:

I’ll be particpating in Shark Fest at the Natural History Society of Maryland for the fourth time!

Want me to come speak to your group? I’d be delighted, and I will come anywhere with an audience and a speaker travel budget. Please email me at WhySharksMatter @ Gmail. I can also speak virtually if that’s easier.
