Shark communication is critical in changing their "man-eating" reputation from the movie Jaws. Sharks need protection so telling people about the wonders of sharks is essential.

Marine biology is more than just a job — it’s a lifestyle driven by passion and purpose. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, host Andrew Lewin speaks with marine biologist Kenzie Horton, who shares how her love for the ocean shaped her career. Based in Florida, Kenzie juggles a full-time role in state government, a master’s degree researching white sharks, and a growing platform on TikTok where she busts marine science myths and offers ocean safety tips.

Ocean science communication is at the heart of Kenzie’s mission. She uses humor, storytelling, and relatable advice to connect with a broad audience online — from what swimsuits not to wear in the ocean to real shark science. If you’re curious about how to blend marine conservation with viral content or want to know how to break into the field of marine biology, this episode is a must-listen.
