This special event will feature the election of new Board Officers, the presentation of the annual financial report, and a year-in-review summary. The highlight of the meeting will be a keynote address by award-winning author Michelle Cusolito.

She is the author of Flying Deep: Climb Inside Deep-Sea Submersible ALVIN and Diving Deep: Using Machines to Explore the Ocean. Her latest work, A Window into the Ocean Twilight Zone: Twenty-Four Days of Science at Sea, is inspired by her participation in a three-week research expedition with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. In 2025, she will release Jellyfish Scientist: Maude Delap and Her Mesmerizing Medusas and In the World of Whales. Michelle’s passion for science, communication, and exploration makes her a fascinating speaker, and attendees will have the opportunity to hear firsthand about her experiences at sea.
