Catherine Macdonald Named Sea Hero for Expanding Opportunities in Marine Science Education
A former student turned director, this shark researcher is the first female to hold the position of Director at the University of Miami's Shark Research and Conservation Program. Macdonald is dedicated to providing research and mentorship opportunities for aspiring marine biologists through her work at the university and Field School — an organization she co-founded.
As the sponsor of the Sea Heroes program, Seiko awards each Sea Hero a Seiko Prospex watch. In addition, the Sea Hero of the Year receives a $5,000 cash award from Seiko. This financial commitment furthers the Sea Hero of the Year’s mission and work to help ensure the future of our oceans.
