Roberta Reilly
Roberta is a New England-born nature lover whose passion for all things living propelled her to the west coast to study Sustainability and Environmental Studies at San Diego State University. Her love for both marine and land animals has driven her career path towards ocean protection and conservation. If she isn’t swimming in the ocean, attending a beach cleanup, or snorkeling with the stingrays at La Jolla shores, Roberta can be found dancing around at a music festival.
