Having grown up along the cold coasts of New England, Rose found warmth and adventure in the Florida Keys—and never looked back. As a consultant tackling issues like poverty and food insecurity, she’s passionate about creating change both on land and under water. Through the WDHOF grant, she aims to engage in meaningful dive
volunteer work and inspire others to experience the ocean’s serenity. In the Keys, you’ll find her planting coral, removing fishing line from the National Marine Sanctuary, or helping others reconnect with their inner child through the simple joy of painting rocks.
