"I grew up in a small community on the coast of Georgia, surrounded by marshes, live oaks, and the ocean. There is nothing more important to me than preserving special communities like my hometown and the coastal way of life. That’s why I’m at Flood Defenders: the only group in the country focused solely on protecting communities from flooding."
