As a kid, I dreamed of becoming a marine biologist and living my life by the sea. Since I grew up in a landlocked suburb of Atlanta, I lived out this fantasy by setting up aquariums at home. At 14, I started working at my neighborhood aquarium shop. By 16, I had seven fish tanks at home. Then, at 20, I was introduced to photographer David Liittschwager, who hired me to help him with a National Geographic magazine assignment on marine life.
