Breaking The Surface - Shark researcher Jasmine Graham on the surprisingly deep connections which attracted her to sharks
Big Deep - An Ocean Podcast03/15/22 • 16 min
In this episode, I speak with Marine Biologist and Co-Founder of Minorities in Shark Science, Jasmine Graham.
I originally reached out to Jasmine because I had seen a talk given by her and her passion and enthusiasm for sharks and rays was infectious. But additionally, I was interested to learn more about the purpose of the organization she co-founded with three other women focused on creating opportunities in the marine sciences, a field largely inaccessible to women of color.
When we finally spoke, Jasmine spoke about how her passion for the ocean was born during time as a child with her grandmother on the Carolina coast, how studying sharks had surprisingly deeper echoes from her life experience and a gratifying shark dive off the southern California coast in La Jolla.
