Annabella’s primary role is to guide new volunteers as they move through the recruitment and onboarding processes in both our California and Hawai‘i ranges. She graduated from California State University Monterey Bay in 2022 with a degree in Marine Science and Environmental Studies. 

Before joining the Center as a staff member, Annabella developed her love for training and inspiring new volunteers as a volunteer crew supervisor with our Monterey Bay Operations. Annabella’s prior experience showcases a breadth of environmental education, working with the Teen Programs at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, providing academic advising to incoming CSUMB students, and instructing at the Catalina Island Marine Institute. 

Outside of work, Annabella enjoys ocean swims, yoga and creating art.
