They say, &lsquo;Okay, my job is done, I&#8217;ve published the paper,&lsquo;&rdquo; said Richmond. &ldquo;For Narrissa and her generation, that is no longer sufficient. &lsquo;We&#8217;ve done the science, we&#8217;ve published the paper and now we have to put that knowledge to work.&rsquo; And that&#8217;s what distinguishes her from a lot of other people.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Spies grew up in Hilo and Kawaihae, where her childhood aspiration was to become a medical researcher. She began her studies at <a href=\"http:\/\/hawaii.hawaii.edu\/\"><span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> Community College<\/a>, graduating from <a href=\"https:\/\/hilo.hawaii.edu\/\"><abbr title=\"University of Hawaii\">UH<\/abbr> Hilo<\/a> with a bachelor of arts in <a href=\"https:\/\/hilo.hawaii.edu\/catalog\/ba_biol_cell\">biology<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/hilo.hawaii.edu\/catalog\/ba_anth\">anthropology<\/a>, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/hilo.hawaii.edu\/catalog\/ms_tcbes\">master&#8217;s degree in tropical conservation biology and environmental science<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today, you&#8217;ll find Spies at the Kewalo Marine Lab, near <span aria-label=\"Kakaako\">Kaka&#699;ako<\/span> Waterfront Park, where she is on schedule to earn a doctorate in zoology in Spring 2018. She continues her research after receiving yet another honor&#8212;a grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to engage high school students in the natural sciences as a career path.<\/p>\n<p>By demonstrating her high level of success, this role model will increase the number of Native Hawaiian professionals with a cultural affinity for protecting fragile natural resources.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I feel it&#8217;s important to educate students in <abbr title=\"Science Technology Engineering and Math\">STEM<\/abbr> (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) because
