Gwen Shamley was the Texas A & M Galveston recipient of the SCAA Environmental Excellence Award this year. She is a marine biology major who would like to sail out of college but also make a difference. She would like to work as an environmental officer or as a mate on a research vessel so she can put her degree to work but also satiate her love of sailing. After she has had a career in sailing and environmental work, she would love to create a place where young kids could come and learn about the ocean and how to protect it.
