Hallie Arno, a student at College of the Atlantic (COA) in Bar Harbor, ME, speaks about her experiences moving to Maine and beginning to work around the ocean. She has a deep interest for aquaculture, which has driven her to take marine focused courses at COA and brought her to the Fishermen’s Forum. Arno focuses on her own experiences conducting research on the coast of Maine, living in small communities, and her hopes for the implementation of aquaculture at COA.
