Frances Sablan grew up picnicking and fishing at the ocean’s shore with her family. Years of windsurfing and rod and reel fishing have left her with a deep respect for the waters of ocean, as well as a familiarity with the many species of sea animals that call our waters home. She believes that we need to protect our very valuable natural resources and empower our community with knowledge to conserve, preserve, and protect those resources for ourselves and generations to come.
