@TrevToone came up to me and explained his idea, mussels are big news, and I was instantly sold. Trevyns creative genius and hard film making work won us first place in the student category at #SER2023. Endlessly glad I got to do my PhD alongside him and help out with this video!

I am excited to share great news! I defended my PhD and was awarded Dean's List @AucklandUni and we have received funding to continue #musselrestoration in the South Island of NZ as my postdoc! Can't thank my great advisors, collaborators, and colleagues enough! @shellfishrestnz

[Emilee Benjamin @EmileeBenjamin_]

@BrackenLab @Sanford_Ltd @TrevToone @shellfishrestnz Wow these are awesome, very creative!

[Emilee Benjamin @EmileeBenjamin_]

We had the best time at the Havelock mussel festival where we talked about mussel restoration and had people of all ages paint mussel shells with googly eyes! Shells were supplied by @Sanford_Ltd #generationrestoration #musselsarecool @TrevToone @shellfishrestnz

Yesterday I decided to stop editing out all the exclamation marks in my emails. I’ve done this for years to seem “more professional.” But what does that really mean???? Less female? Less young? Less excited? Well I’m young and female and IM EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get used to it.
