Jody Langlois

Jody Langlois is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science, majoring in Ecology and Conservation Biology, with the goal of completing a Master’s degree to contribute to cetacean research and conservation efforts. A dedicated member of ORRCA for the past 18 months, Jody has served as Secretary for the last year and looks forward to continuing her involvement following the upcoming AGM. She is also an active contributor to ORRCA’s sub-committees on media, policy and compliance. As a child, Jody dreamed of becoming a marine biologist but took a different path after being told she wasn’t “smart enough”. Now entering her 40s, she has embraced her passion, successfully completing her first year of university with distinctions and aiming to achieve her academic and professional goals. Proud to call the Illawarra home, Jody spends much of her spare time snorkelling at local dive spots and exploring the region’s beautiful and diverse marine ecosystems.
