Summer Collins is a coral biologist working and living in the Florida Keys. She began working and studying coral after research analyzing percent bleaching rates of reefs in Belize during a study abroad in college. Since then, she has published a paper in Frontiers regarding antiseptic treatments on corals in a restoration setting, worked in a scientific nonprofit laboratory focused on coral reef restoration in the Florida Keys, and participated in the summer 2023 coral bleaching rescue efforts. She has mentored over forty-five students in pursuit of their marine science careers. She now runs a science communications Instagram page to continue to inspire, assist, and educate on a variety of marine science topics. She resides in Big Pine Key, Florida.
