Cassandra Brooks is an Assistant Professor in Environmental Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder. She completed her PhD at Stanford University studying international ocean policy, with a focus on marine protection in the Antarctic.\u00a0During that time she was also a core member of\u00a0The Last Ocean,\u00a0a grand-scale media project focused on the Ross Sea.\u00a0Her efforts helped drive the adoption of the world\u2019s largest marine protected area in the Ross Sea, Antarctica \u2013 one of healthiest and most productive marine ecosystems left on Earth. In 2015, she was awarded a\u00a0Switzer Fellowship\u00a0in Environmental Leadership.\u00a0During her previous graduate work at Moss Landing Marine Labs, she studied Antarctic toothfish in the Ross Sea, a population that supports the most remote fishery on Earth. Cassandra has worked in the lab, underwater, and at sea \u2013 including five research cruises to Antarctica \u2013 and has presented and published her work around the world. Cassandra is also trained as a Science Communicator through the University of California Santa Cruz and has published more than 150 articles and multi-media stories about marine science and the environment.\u00a0Cassandra is also Science Faculty with\u00a0Homeward Bound, a global women’s leadership initiative set in Antarctica, and the future of the earth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
