I am motivated by the fact that everyday is an opportunity to be the change I wish to see in the world. Working at Triton gives me the ability to continue pursuing that goal. From invertebrates, to vertebrates, to humans, we all serve vital functions in this world, and I’m glad to work with a team that pursues environmental sustainability. I believe small actions of change ultimately lead to bigger results. Sustainability allows us to give relief to our ever loving earth that provides much sustenance.
