Part of the team

15 year old Alana was one of our early participants in the Ocean Youth program in Sydney. Passionate about our oceans and marine life, and knowing all about the huge challenges they faced, she was keen to join the program and learn about how she could make a positive difference for oceans.

Such is her work ethic and commitment to marine conservation, she now volunteers at SEA LIFE every Sunday helping out the Guest Experience team, talking to visitors, hanging out with the dugongs and basically learning lots about communicating for positive change, and LOVING it!

Alana’s at SEA LIFE Sydney most Sundays so feel free to come on down and say hello 🙂
