Paola is a third-generation Commercial Salmon Fisherwoman in Area M along the Aleutian Peninsula. She grew up on the San Juan Islands in Anacortes, WA. Before returning to the fishery, she attended university. This opportunity later led her to Manhattan for years in addition to Italy, allowing her to build out her resume and develop a unique skill set in tandem with fishing. Paola is back on the West Coast and is currently building her first vessel alongside her family.
