Growing up in Vancouver, BC, Jett’s passion for marine science and conservation started at a very young age. She began learning about the ocean on the Pacific coast, spending her summers on a small island in the Georgia Straight. She is now in her third year at Dalhousie, pursuing a BSc in marine biology with a minor in oceanography. Her work in the FOME lab has revolved around carbon sequestration of eelgrass beds of Nova Scotia. Her areas of interest include benthic and deep sea ecology and conservation.
