Biography

Ocean Ramsey is an ethologist, marine biologist, professional freediver, scuba instructor, sharks conservationist, author, filmmaker, and model. She gained international media attention for free diving with sharks, including great white sharks, to raise awareness about shark conservation and promote her business (a company based in Hawaii that facilitates dives with marine life, and promote shark diving education and conservation). She is probably one of the few people in the world who has swum underwater with great white sharks. Ramsey inspires people from all over the world to look at sharks not as ferocious killing machines but as an endangered species that is critical to the water world's ecosystem. Ocean is also widely recognized for her commitment to the protection of our oceans and marine life and her work as a passionate shark conservation advocate. Ramsey completed an associate's degree in behavioral sciences and psychology, studied biology at the University of Hawaii, earned a bachelor's degree at San Diego State University, and a master's degree in ethology. She is also an avid swimmer, surfer, model, runner, hiker, photographer and videographer, and Pilates and Yoga enthusiast.

Envoy: Shark Cull is a fascinating, deeply moving documentary narrated by Eric Bana, which sheds light on the real story behind the coastal ‘shark safety’ programs in Queensland and New South Wales. The current methods of baited drum-lines and nets have not only been scientifically proven to be ineffective in protecting swimmers and surfers, leaving them at risk in the sea, but these outdated solutions continue to be allowed to negatively impact entire marine ecosystems—including the Great Barrier Reef. Follows some of the biggest names in ocean conservation, such as Sea Shepherd, Ocean Ramsey and Madison Stewart. We will join these experts as they explore and expose this scarcely understood topic.
