Altamaha Coastkeeper at Work
Altamaha Coastkeeper Wendy Galan holds her breath while
taking water samples at Rayonier. Her face shows a common
reaction to the smell in the area. |
Wendy Galan is the new Altamaha Coastkeeper. Wendy
was raised fishing, shrimping, and crabbing in the rivers and creeks
that separate St. Simons and Sea Island with her father, Captain
Frank Mead, a charter boat guide for over 30 years.
Before Joining
ARK, Wendy, a graduate of Armstrong State University, worked at
Sea Island as the assistant to the Executive Chef where she learned
how to juggle many changing priorities and manage culinary chaos.
Wendy says that as the Altamaha Coastkeeper, she feels like she
has the job that she has trained for all of her life.
