Kristen Hunter-Cevera Biology.
After a trip to Woods Hole when she was eight years old, Kristen Hunter Cevera declared to her parents that she wanted to become a marine biologist. The California native eventually returned to Woods Hole and kept her word. On the way, she graduated from West Virginia University with degrees in biology and mathematics. During a slight detour, she also received a master's of business administration degree from WVU. She graduated from the MIT-WHOI Joint Program in 2014 with a Ph.D. in biological oceanography. When not in the lab transferring her Synechococcus cultures, Hunter-Cevera can often be found running on the beach, tending to her multiple house plants and betta fish, enjoying almost any arts and craft project, or undertaking occasional moderate lab or office redecoration. Her mentor for this article was David Levin, a freelance science and technology journalist.
