We are excited to welcome Chelsey Davis to the REEF team. Chesley is based at the REEF Campus in Key Largo, where she will be helping to lead REEF’s education team. Originally from Georgia, she received her BSA in agricultural communications from the University of Georgia. She worked with the 4-H Youth Program in Georgia and South Carolina for 17 years, where she developed, implemented, and evaluated educational programs and managed volunteers. A lover of the outdoors and travel, she has volunteered at a South African game reserve and earned her scuba certification in Egypt, where she fell in love with everything marine. In 2021, she pursued a Master’s in Climate Science and Global Sustainability from the School of International Training’s Graduate Institute.

As Director of Learning and Engagement at REEF, Chesley will work closely with REEF Ocean Explorers programs, while supporting community outreach and educational initiatives at the new Ocean Exploration Center. Please join us in giving her a warm welcome!
