Long before joining My Clean Ocean, Mónika was standing in the water. An avid traveler who has explored coastlines from South Korea to the Pacific Northwest, she has always felt the pull of the sea — the same pull that draws her to the science of skin, to the healing properties of marine compounds, and to the conviction that what is good for the ocean is good for us.
When she stands in the water, she is not just a nurse practitioner on a day off. She is a conservationist in the making — someone who understands, at a cellular level, why the ocean matters.
Mónika brings 13 years of clinical expertise to My Clean Ocean — guiding our health and wellness programming with the same evidence-based rigor she applies in her practice.
As a skin health specialist who deeply understands the marine origins of many powerful skincare ingredients, Mónika leads our transition to ocean-safe, reef-conscious products across all MCO programs.
A natural teacher and lifelong learner, Mónika brings her clinical knowledge directly to the young people in our programs — teaching the connection between ocean health and human health.
