- Aloha from Hawai'i! My name is Jessica, I am a professional marine biologist living on the island of Maui.
Join me on "a day in the life" as a marine biologist at the Maui Ocean Center, where I highlight the many exciting aspects of my career and what it's like working in an aquarium environment.
Mahalo nui loa to the Maui Ocean Center for permitting me to film this episode in the park.
And a special thank you to Morgan for sharing part of her special day with me. Don't forget to check out her adventure at the Maui Ocean Center over on her channel, @MJ Plays: • Checking Out The Maui ...
Let's dive in!
I'm 14 and want to be a marine biologist working in Florida, anyways my question is since marine biology is a massive field, how did you find what was perfect for you?
There are many jobs in it. Im turning 19 and soon going to college for it. My choice is being a marine ecologist. I love how the oceqb interacts with the sea life and how the sea interact with eachother. It all depends on what you love about the ocean. If it is a specific group of animals that live in the ocean you can be a marine zoologist.
Hi there Riptide! I'm glad you asked, because I have a video answering that exact question :) Check it out: czcams.com/video/N4d6YRKEaxg/video.html
@@KaimanaConservation Thanks!!
That's a coincidence, I'm 14 and I wanna be a Marine Biologist too but people say they don't get paid enough and that my life would be trash, but I ignore them
@@themarinefan Thanks!!
Live coral?!?! I recently saw a fish tank with what I think was live coral and it was simply magical. So cool the entire park has live coral!!
That was an amazing experience seeing you snorkeling the open ocean. It's amazing seeing the corals feed and that art portrait was beautiful.
So awesome!! Thank you for sharing!!!! ❤️
That was great, Jessica! So glad this is the field I’m working my way to!
What a fun and beautiful place to work Jessica! Great job!! Loved the video.
always dreamed to be working in an aqua park and taking care of all these aquatic animals, thank you for sharing this lovely video
This is the BEST video i’ve seen about this topic it’s so cool!!
Very nice video.. and thank you so much 😇
Awesome stuff, Jess! 👏🏼
Very nice and hepful! Thanks from Brazil, I'm in the first year of biology and im interested in marine biology :-)
Really sick video absolutely loved it
I've been thinking a lot about Marine Science recently... thanks for the video!
I did enjoy that. Thank you for a great ❤
Wow!that’s definitely a dream job😍
Thanks so much for sharing! Loved every second of this defiantly my dream job 💕

I’m going into the coast guard. I just graduated high school and found out that the coast guard academy has a marine biology program I some day want to open up my own ocean center but was wondering how I could get a hold of some marine biologist to pick their brain and get some of their thoughts and advice
Looks like a great place to work!
The video is so lovely. I would love to know all the job titles where people study marine biology.
If I ever get an office I would want it to look like yours 😊
dream job
hey!! im 13 and ive always wanted to work with dolphins, sea turtles, rays, ect. i want to know how i can get more into it since i live in iowa, not very close to the ocean, my moms family lives in alabama so we go every summer or every other summer. last year i went to a marine camp and it was a lot of fun
What kind of college degree did you get and how long did it take for you to get your current job title? I've loved all kinds of animals my whole life and I'm curious about marine biology. Looking into the various different animal degrees, this has caught my eye. Degrees like Ecology have steered me away because of the desks and the research analyzing. I love the passion you have for your job! You're living the dream :)
Now i'm no expert but try looking for a university that offers biological sciences and/or marine sciences if you can get both then that's fantastic. you should also get a bachelors degree if you wanna become a marine biologist and maybe shoot for a masters even though it's not exactly required it can get you into a better position
@@lilgingy75I'd rather have a PhD. Not for jobs or anything, just for intellectual thirst.
@@kishascape Just go to your public library and you can satisfy your intellectual thirst.
Wow that’s a huge lab
im an environmental scientist (more on the ecologist/biologist side) and i REALLY wanna to work in marine environments. Currently specializing in wetlands but gonna volunteer at the aquarium for more marine experience (i did research on sturgeon fish and other species in uni)
Great video Jessica! love that cool painting with the girls face and marine organisms as her hair. would you happen to. know the name of the artist?
Right?! Her name is Jana, she is climate advocate artist with the Nature Conservancy. Here is a link to the web page about her work from the video: mauioceancenter.com/news/the-nature-conservancys-vanishing-mural-at-maui-ocean-center-highlights-plight-of-hawaiis-coral-reefs/
thanks very intersting (:
How many years of schooling did you do in college to be able to get this work position? did you need a master's or just a bachelor's?
I, Kaderwood the first. Want to be a marine biologist. Yes I know it’s quite young to have high goals at the age of 14. I wanna know what university is the best for marine biology? Thanks!
im nearly 15 and live in Australia, its my absolute dream to be a marine biologist whats some tips to start? and what types of marine biologists are there?
I'm 14 and I want to become a marine biology what subject I have to learn more
Any book recommendation's?
How often are you on the ocean?
Have you any tips for me since im the worst at science and never do good but i wanna be a marine biologist and going into year 10
What exactly is your job title and what field of marine biology is it in
Aloha! Since marine biology is an umbrella term, how does one find a job that works for them. I’m a highschool student looking to study marine biology in college and work in Hawai’i to be with my fam ( currently on mainland ) so I need a job I love and pays enough to live in Hawai’i.
Hi there Heather! I'm glad you asked, because I have a video answering that exact question :) Check it out: czcams.com/video/N4d6YRKEaxg/video.html
What grade is required in high school in order to get an opportunity to work as a marine biologist in Kenya?
Im 23 years old and when I was little I always wanted to be a marine biologist 😢but I started majoring in psychology. Debating on if i should follow passion or something practical and its so hard
Passion.
hello! I’m 12 years old and I really want to become a marine biologist! any tips for me right now? Or should u just focus on having fun at the moment?
Focus on having fun like maybe you could find marine camps? (Idk anything about them) or other fun activities involving the ocean

How long did you go to school for ?
I did 4 years in undergrad and an additional 2 years in grad school.
Hi! I am in high school and I also want to be a marine biologist like you. What university did you attend and was it difficult to obtain your job at the Maui aquarium because in the future I would love to work there.
