193: You are a Reflection of the Ocean with Danni Washington, Marine Biologist + Mermaid

In this week's episode, Nixie Marie sits down with Danni Washington, a marine biologist and the first African American Woman to host her own science television series. She is a fellow mermaid activist and Co-Founder of Big Blue and You which is an organization that is dedicated to inspiring and educating youth about ocean conservation through arts and media.

Miami native with Jamaican heritage, Danni Washington is deeply passionate about our oceans and science communications. She dreamed of studying the oceans since she was six years old and that passion has fueled her work as a TV host, thought leader, public speaker, and more.

Currently, Danni was featured as a correspondent in season one of a weekly nationally syndicated CBS series called Mission Unstoppable with host Miranda Cosgrove who is also co-Executive Producer alongside fellow actor Geena Davis. Danni has also hosted Xploration Nature Knows Best on FOX and Amazon Prime, a STEM educational TV series that featured the latest advancements in bio-inspired technology and design — making her the first African-American woman to host her own science television series.

- Empowering the youth to connect with the ocean

- The biggest issues that we face in the ocean today

- The importance of biodiversity in the ocean
