Giving Yoga with Anh Truong Craver - Washington DC Surfrider Foundation Chapter
The DC Chapter represents residents from the greater Washington, DC area, including western Maryland and Northern Virginia. It naturally draws coastal transplants who have found themselves landlocked, as well as river- and bay-oriented natives. Because of our location amidst lawmakers, the chapter’s efforts include legislative agendas as well as river/bay clean-ups and public education. Most importantly, we realize that despite being hours from the nearest beach, our local actions can significantly affect the health of the coast, the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers, the Chesapeake Bay, and the rest of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed!
Trained as a conservation biologist, her career before Surfrider focused on protecting endangered species and working with local communities to find solutions that benefit both people and wildlife. Most recently, CeCe was the Chief Conservation Director at the International Rhino Foundation, where she led their field programs in Asia and Africa. Prior to that she worked at the World Wildlife Fund, where her work focused on community-based conservation and ending the illegal wildlife trade. CeCe has a Master of Conservation Biology and Sustainable Development degree from the University of Wisconsin - Madison. CeCe grew up spending summers on the Maine coast and is lifelong sailor and sea kayaker (and a better-late-than-never nascent surfer and rower). She lives with her two kids in Baltimore but all three take every chance they can to be in a boat on the Penobscot Bay in Maine.
