From Lima, Peru Adriana has spent her whole life next to the ocean. This contact with nature inspired a fascination and enchantment for the ocean and its mysteries. She is studying Marine Biology and Eco-Business at the Universidad Científica del Sur. Adriana wants to dedicate her career to the investigation of sharks for their conservation through sustainable use. She is also interested in educating and raising awareness among various stakeholders that affect the marine ecosystem, with special emphasis on children. “Diving is an important and my most favorite tool to explore their world and study them in their natural environment in real time.” She will use her internship to study the juvenile shark breeding areas in Venezuela.
