\"\"Sydney Fishman has been named a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Coastal Management\/Digital Coast Fellow<\/a>. She will work with the Washington Coastal Zone Management Program, focusing on coastline erosion on Washington\u2019s Puget Sound.<\/p>\n

Fishman, who earned her masters\u2019 degree at Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment<\/a>, is one of nine fellows who will receive on-the-job education and training opportunities in resource management and policy. The NOAA Office for Coastal Management and the National Sea Grant College Program<\/a> sponsor the fellowship.<\/p>\n

\u201cFellows often find this professional experience formative for their future careers,\u201d says John Fear, North Carolina Sea Grant<\/a> deputy director. \u201cSydney\u2019s interest in resilient coastal communities aligns with North Carolina Sea Grant\u2019s strategic priorities, and we look forward to the great work she will do in Washington.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fishman is eager to start her fellowship in August.<\/p>\n

\u201cHistorically, coastline erosion on the Sound was addressed with hard armoring projects like bulkheads and seawalls, which can be harmful to the environment,\u201d she explains.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe state is moving toward other means of \u2018soft\u2019 shoreline stabilization that avoid large manmade structures, and therefore\u00a0have fewer environmental impacts. My work will advance this goal by providing technical and policy assistance in order to implement more of these soft projects.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to her Duke master\u2019s focus on coastal management, she also earned a certificate in geospatial analysis from the Nicholas School and a certificate in natural hazards resilience from University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. Her advisor was Patrick Halpin from Duke.<\/p>\n

The fellowship will bring together her field skills in geospatial and remote sensing technologies, along with policy review and development.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am most excited to be working with a team of people who are passionate about coastal issues and committed to advancing these causes at the state level,\u201d she says. \u201cMy fellowship has a lot of flexibility for me to explore my interests and apply my knowledge,\u00a0and I will have the opportunity to\u00a0learn from people doing all types of coastal work in the state.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fishman is originally from Chicago, IL. She has a bachelor\u2019s degree in environmental studies, with minors in geohazards and international policy and management, from the University of Southern California.<\/p>\n
