By growing up near it banks in Hephzibah, Georgia, Tonya's love and passion for the Savannah River began at a young age. Her career as an activist for water conservation took off when she was hired as Development Director for the Savannah Riverkeeper in 2007. She was also the Georgia Field Representative for Oceana's campaign to convince Olin to convert to a more efficient and - most importantly - mercury-free process. Tonya's Marketing degree and her extensive knowledge of the River make her an invaluable part of the Riverkeeper team.
