78. Surfrider- Helping the world! - Stefanie Sekich-Quinn

Surfrider is a grass roots organization that is dedicated to the
protection and enjoyment of the world’s ocean, waves and beaches,
for all people, through a powerful activist network! Stefanie
Sekich-Quinn is the Costal preservation manager! In her own
words, Stefanie might tell you that she’s a “politics, law and
policy” dork, but that isn’t the case at all. She is a leading
expert in these fields on both the state and national level.
Beginning as a San Diego Chapter Manager and working her way to
her current position, Stefanie has been an absolutely integral
part of the team. She also helped spearhead the Save Trestles
campaign and continues to protect this legendary surf break and
watershed. She earned a MA in Environmental Law and Policy from
the University of Keele. Stefanie currently assists Surfrider’s
chapter network to implement effective advocacy efforts at the
local, state and federal levels to protect coastal resources and
influence agencies and elected officials to plan for climate
change impacts.
