I was honored to receive a Boatie (!!) from the @SMBRF. This recognition of our work to pilot living coastlines is especially important as El Niño shows how fragile our beaches can be.
Our coastline is one of LA County's most incredible places--this organization's work and partnership is preserving and protecting it, for all of us!
