The public is invited and refreshments will be served. \nAbout Mark Deakos:\nMark was fortunate to experience living in various countries around the globe during his early years. A common thread in his life has always been water.  At one time a competitive swimmer and water polo player\, Mark now spends much of his time in saltwater as an avid scuba diver\, free diver\, kayaker\, and mariner. His chosen career working in wildlife biology and marine research is an extension of his passion for the natural world and his marvel of the ocean environment. \nMark obtained his biology degree from the University of \nDr. Mark Deakos \nWaterloo in Canada where he began pursuing his interest in wildlife biology. After working with several avian and reptile species\, his interests rapidly returned to the ocean and towards marine mammals\, which eventually led him to Hawaii in 1996. \nAt the University of Hawaii\, he completed his master’s degree studying humpback whale behavior\, and completed his doctoral degree in 2010 focusing on manta ray ecology.  In 2004\, he founded The Hawaii Association for Marine Education and Research (HAMER)\, a not-for-profit 501 (c) 3 corporation with the mission of better understanding and protecting Hawaii’s marine resources. \nAside from his continued involvement to learn about and protect manta rays here in Hawaii\, Mark is the Deputy Program Manager for HDR managing the Navy’s Protected Species Monitoring Program in the Pacific and is an active member of various community groups working towards solutions to some of our greatest environmental threats.
