Vicki Blazer is a Fish Biologist with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Based in West Virginia, Blazer has studied how intersex characteristics in smallmouth bass and other fish are linked to chemical contaminants in the Chesapeake Bay region. In our interview, we asked Blazer what the Chesapeake Bay means to her. Watch the video above to hear her response.

Watch how Blazer and her team work in the field in our Bay 101: Intersex Fish video.

Throughout Chesapeake Bay Awareness Week, we'll be sharing the stories of people who live, work and play in the Chesapeake region. Join the conversation on social media: #HumansOfTheChesapeake
