After more than a decade of supporting REEF’s mission, we’re wishing Amy Lee a fond farewell and best fishes on her next adventure. Her last day with the REEF Team was at the end of January. Amy first came to Key Largo in 2014 as a REEF Marine Conservation Intern after graduating from the University of South Carolina. She joined the REEF staff in April 2015 and quickly became a shining example of an early-career professional connecting divers, snorkelers, and ocean lovers with meaningful action for marine conservation. For the past six years, Amy has served as our Communications Manager. She’s also an avid REEF surveyor, self-proclaimed fish geek, and leader of multiple REEF Field Survey Trips. Throughout her time at REEF, she used her strengths in science communication, teaching, and natural ability to help our community learn more, care more, and do more for the ocean. In 2019, Amy was honored with the dive industry's Wave Makers Award by DEMA, recognizing professionals who are making significant contributions in the field. We’re incredibly grateful for everything Amy has contributed to REEF. She will be deeply missed, but we can’t wait to see where her journey takes her next.
