Kate Masury is the program director at Eating with the Ecosystem, a small non-profit whose mission is to promote a place-based approach to sustaining New England's wild seafood, through healthy habitats, flourishing food webs, and short, adaptive seafood supply chains. A native of Kittery, Maine, Kate earned a Bachelors of Arts in Environmental Studies from College of the Holy Cross before spending five years in the non-profit world teaching marine science to students of all ages on both the east and west coast. She then decided to pursue her passion for sustainable seafood and returned to school and received her Masters of Advanced Studies in Marine Biodiversity and Conservation from Scripps Institute of Oceanography where she focused on sustainable seafood and fisheries.
