Roboticist / Explorer/ Entrepreneur

Amy Kukulya

I'm a patented engineer, CEO and Explorers Club Fellow focusing on ocean and environmental technology. I tend to define problems first, then innovate solutions. Robots are everywhere, and I strive to teach people what is possible and that typically involves many different tools. Having the right tool is not enough---Knowing how and when to use them in order to get what you want is the goal.
