About
Sarah Schumann is a 15+ year veteran of the Rhode Island and Alaska seafood industries as well as a passionate advocate for the ocean ecosystems that sustain wild fisheries. In 2022, she worked with commercial fishermen around the country to launch the bicoastal Fishery Friendly Climate Action campaign, a grassroots initiative that provides fishermen, fisheries associations, and seafood businesses with tools, networking, access, and knowledge to advocate for robust climate solutions that work for U.S. fisheries and not at their expense. Sarah is also a seasoned social science researcher and the principal of Shining Sea Fisheries Consulting, a mission-driven social science research and communication firm that combines contract consulting for government, nonprofit, and academic clients, with pro-bono services that assure all commercial fishermen can access the skills they need to advocate for healthy marine environments, regardless of budget.
