Background

About Summer Brooks

I’m extremely versatile in the marine sciences field, having developed a broad range of skills as a Biologist at Mote Marine Laboratory and during my academic career, conducting research both nationally and internationally. I am excited to leverage my experience as a scientist towards media outreach and science coordination, to grow in digital communications, and apply my passions for preserving endangered ecosystems for the future. As a Staff Biologist for Mote Marine Laboratory, I have learned an array of skills and knowledge: I am the intern coordinator for Mote’s Coral Restoration Program, where I recruit and manage a group of 3-8 interns on a daily basis, while simultaneously fulfilling aquaculture responsibilities, such as executing health checks on coral. I worked in a team of 5 other staff members to manage our 80+ raceway land based facility, the largest in North America.
