October 8 - Brenda Cannaliato | Whitney Anmal Meet and Greet

Join us for Whitney Animal Meet and Greet at our next Sip 'N Science! We will be live sharing creatures from our lab's backyard, the Matanzas River Basin.  We will learn about mollusks, starfish and anemones found in our local environment here in Northeast Florida. This is an interactive webinar where we will answer your questions live about the marine animals that we share with over 5,000 youth in our education program each year. Brenda Cannaliato will be presenting to you some of our most loved animals in our program.

Brenda Cannaliato received her B.S in Marine Biology from University of West Florida. She grew up in the valleys and mountains in the Oklahoma and Arkansas regions hunting and fishing. After discovering a love for all things marine and earning her degree, Brenda moved with her family to the east coast of Florida where she joined as Education Coordinator for the Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience.

During the last 12 years her role has transformed into the Education Program Manager encompassing the direction, expansion, and daily operations of UF Whitney Laboratory’s informal STEM programs, including teaching in K-12 and providing NSF funded Research Education Undergraduate summer internship program support and coordination. Her main goal is to provide quality STEM programs for K-Adults, and help young students understand that science can be fun, not scary.
