Coral restoration specialist Alannah wears a lot of hats at Coral Vita, a startup working to protect and restore coral reefs.
She might be diving, cleaning trees at the coral nursery or bringing in broken coral to grow through a high-tech micro fragmentation process. She also updates the company’s database and social media accounts.
But her primary job? That’s making sure the corals “are looking happy and healthy,” she says. “That all the tentacles are out and they’re just living their best life.”
