Jonathan Kellogg (he/him) is the Program Manager for Expeditions at MEOPAR. Having grown up boating throughout the Salish Sea and beyond, Jonathan has long been interested in what’s happening on and in the water. These beginnings led him towards three degrees in oceanography where he studied the heat and salt flow into the ocean from seafloor hydrothermal systems off Canada’s west coast. Having been on dozens of small and large expeditions with more than 100 days doing science at sea, he brings knowledge of logisitcal planning and practical application when working with funding recipients. Jonathan also has a passion for science communication and enjoys helping inspire the next generation of ocean scientists. When not facilitating research, he may be found assisting his kids as they navigate youth sports, camping in the wilds of British Columbia, or relaxing at the beach and taking in the sunset.
