Hello everyone, I'm Conrad Pfalzgraf, and I'm excited to join this community. With a background in Environmental Science focusing on Marine Ecosystems, I have had diverse experiences working as a divemaster and research assistant, and in various fisheries roles in Washington State. In addition to my passion for the environment, I also enjoy photography and videography.
Recently, I made the move to Southern Maine to work as a fisheries observer. While the work trips have been inconsistent, I have used the downtime to explore my interests further. One area I have always been particularly keen on is aquaculture. I am eager to immerse myself in this field, learn more about the industry, and hopefully contribute to its growth. I look forward to connecting with like-minded individuals and expanding my knowledge within this community.
That being said I was wondering if anyone knew of any possible positions, hatcheries, or farms that I could work at or volunteer my time to. Regardless, I am looking forward to making valuable connections with you all.
Thank you, I’m happy to be part of the community!
