Dr. Mendenhall earned her Ph.D. in International Relations in 2017 and is now an assistant professor at the University of Rhode Island. She teaches International Ocean Governance in Marine Affairs, and has a joint appointment with Political Science. In 2011, she won a national college policy debate championship and currently sits on the Board of Directors for the non-profit Women's Debate Institute. As a native Kansan, she actively chose the ocean as an area of interest and study, and came to the TEDx stage to share her ideas with a broader audience.
