Dallas has extensive experience in marine conservation, particularly in scientific research and education. Upon completion of a bachelor’s degree in Marine Science and Management, he pursued a career in education through becoming a Naturalist guide on the Great Barrier Reef and at Sydney’s sea life aquarium, sharing knowledge with the public. He then moved to New Zealand and became a Fisheries Observer with the Ministry for Primary Industries and logged in excess of 350 days at sea over a 2.5 year period. All of this experience has allowed Dallas to excel in advocating for sustainable fisheries in an informative and educational capacity.
