She remembers the vibrant colors and the symphony of sounds underwater, a stark contrast to the quiet, polluted canals of her hometown. She chose to dedicate her life to studying and protecting these fragile ecosystems, driven by the stark contrast between the beauty she witnessed and the destruction she saw in other parts of the ocean.
