BIOGRAPHY

For questions or to make a donation connect with Noelle through LinkedIn, reach out via email at [email protected] or submit a virtual Contact form.  ​
Noelle is a proud descendant of the children of the Enterprise .  This American merchant vessel was forced to dock in Bermuda in 1835 while carrying 77 enslaved individuals, including two young girls, sisters Mahalia and Mary Warfield, who had been kidnapped from the Warfield Plantation. Mahalia Warfield being Noelle's third paternal great-grandmother, and Mary, her great-aunt. She draws inspiration from their story of liberation and the power of collaboration between Bermudian civil society and British governance. This legacy fuels her advocacy for the protection of Bermuda’s natural and cultural heritage, ensuring that future generations understand and honor the island’s rich history.

She is the daughter of Gino Brangman and the late Heather Brangman (née Stines), the granddaughter of the late Irving Stines and C. Roslyn Stines (née Battersbee) , and granddaughter of the late June Brangman and Arthur Granville Swan.  Niece of C. Joanne Brangman.

 Hailing from diverse roots as a mixed-race, multicultural Bermudian-Canadian, Noelle Young's upbringing was a global odyssey, marked by a profound connection with aquatic life from an early age. Currently, Noelle serves as a freelance consultant with Greenpeace UK and is currently consulting for the Caribbean Sustainable Aquaculture company.

Noelle has been honored with several prestigious youth delegate positions, including placements with the Island Innovation Climate Justice Leaders Academy, Ubuntu United Nations Academy, World Food Forum of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, and YOUNGA through BridgingTheGap Ventures. These roles highlight her dedication to sustainability and environmental stewardship, positioning her as a key advocate for climate justice and ocean conservation.

At the tender age of 15, Noelle graduated from the Perkiomen Preparatory School in Pennsburg, Pennsylvania. Her quest for aquatic knowledge then carried her to the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies at the University of Tasmania and to Vancouver Island University, where she delved deep into the realms of Aquaculture and Fisheries. Continuing her academic journey, Noelle later secured a Bachelor of Natural Sciences Degree from Excelsior University, focusing her studies on Aquatic Biology.

Noelle's career in aquatic science began with an internship in Bermuda's Department of Environmental Protection. Her work there encompassed a wide array of projects, including the analysis of otoliths for fish age and growth studies, data entry for the spiny lobster and guinea chick lobster fisheries, and a pivotal assessment of potential aquaculture opportunities in Bermuda.

Venturing to the Oceans Research Institute in South Africa, Noelle contributed to research involving White Sharks, cetaceans, seals, and aquarium operations.

Following this, she dedicated several years of practicum and employment to the Big Qualicum and Rosewall fish hatcheries operated by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. These experiences exposed her to a plethora of natural and artificial enhancement techniques aimed at bolstering wild fish populations.

Subsequently, Noelle assumed the role of an Aquaculture Technician at Marine Harvest Canada's Dalrymple Hatchery on Vancouver Island, BC. Her primary focus was the nurturing of early-life Salmonids within innovative recirculating aquaculture systems. These systems incorporated cutting-edge technologies like mixed bed bioreactors, diffused aeration basins, and low head oxygenation, all designed to provide modern, high-efficiency solutions within a compact footprint.

Noelle's journey has not only enriched her understanding of aquatic life but also fostered an open-minded approach to the various aquaculture techniques employed across the globe. Her diverse experiences have refined her comprehension of the intricate science of aquaculture, enabling her to contribute meaningfully to the field.

Through her academic background and professional experiences, Noelle Young stands as a dedicated and knowledgeable advocate for aquatic sustainability and environmental justice.
