Brian Platt

Shark Allies Digital Marketing

Brian Platt first got in touch with Shark Allies Executive Director, Stefanie Brendl, to interview her on his conservation site and podcast. Brian’s podcast highlights positive environmental stories, and the one with Stefanie turned out to be one of the most popular episodes. From there, he was inspired by the incredible hard work, determination, and passion of the Shark Allies team, and decided to volunteer with their digital marketing efforts in any way he could. Brian has always had an affinity and immense appreciation for conservation, animals, and in particular, for sharks. Growing up, he had always wanted to travel to exotic places, and immediately after completing college, he moved to Thailand to teach English. There he fell in love with diving, and has since been fortunate to explore many incredible places, including seeing thresher sharks in Malapascua, the Komodo Islands in Indonesia, and diving with great whites in South Africa. The experiences underwater, as well as his exposure to the amazing people of Shark Allies has inspired him to help protect these incredible species as much as possible.
