My name is Winston Daley and I am the new Director of Youth
and Beach Programs at Save the Harbor/Save the Bay. I will oversee our Youth Environmental
Education Program.
My family immigrated to Boston from Jamaica when I was 10
years old and I have been in the city most of my life. I have my Bachelors
Degree in Business Management and Entrepreneurial Studies from Suffolk
University and spent over a dozen years working in finance.
Two years ago I left my career to work in youth development,
advocacy and community leadership. Since then I’ve earned a Master’s degree
from Northeastern University, worked in schools as a tutor, coach and assistant
athletic director, and became a national facilitator and speaker for violence
prevention programs.
I am passionate about expanding the opportunities available
to kids in the city because I was once where they are now and know the value
of having people to champion you. So what does all of that have to do with
environmental advocacy and Save the Harbor/Save the Bay? I am here at Save the
Harbor/Save the Bay because of the goal to “Share the Harbor”. Here I have the
opportunity to introduce more Boston youth to the Harbor and expand their idea
of community all while having some fun and singing sea chanteys.
When I am not at work I am spending time with my family, playing catch with my daughter, and attending piano and dance recitals.
I am excited for summer and while I may not be a marine scientist yet, just give me some time. You can reach me at Daley@savetheharbor.org
