Guest Speakers: Mark Rehbein, Director of Development of Bonefish & Tarpon Trust
Topic: Bonefish & Tarpon Trust- Exploring the Science and Conservation Efforts Behind the Flats Fishery
Bio: Mark caught his first bonefish when he was nine-years-old, and has been pursuing all types of finned, feathered, and furred species ever since. He is a graduate from Elon University with degrees in Strategic Communications and Video Production and holds a Masters in Business Administration from Florida International University. While his early career began in a tent on Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula, he eventually progressed to a brief term at Capitol Hill Consulting Group, a lobbying firm on Capitol Hill.
Looking for more, he transitioned to Bonefish & Tarpon Trust in 2014 and has been guiding people to science-backed conservation and advocacy ever since.
As the Director of Development, Mark oversees all fund development for the organization, including individual giving, corporate sponsorships, foundation grants, memberships, and event-based fundraising.
Mark is thankful to have gotten an early start in fishing through his parents. He hopes to preserve the world’s most exciting game fish for his future children.
