Heidi Williams received a Master of Arts in international environmental policy with a concentration in ocean and coastal resource management from the Middlebury Institute of International Studies in 2016. During graduate school, Williams worked as a research assistant on offshore renewable energy for the National Ocean Economics Program (NOEP) and completed a Center for the Blue Economy Fellowship working on nonmarket ocean economics at the National University of Ireland-Galway. Upon graduation, Williams worked at National Geographic Learning to communicate science to elementary students through the development of a new series of National Geographic Reading and Science textbooks.
At the Delta Science Program, Williams helped improve science communications to more effectively inform policy and management decisions, build the Delta science community, and inform the public about the Bay-Delta system.
