Dr. Hoskins-Brown was born in Hampton, Virginia, and began her education in the Savannah Chatham County Public Schools at Gould Elementary when her family settled in Savannah in 1980. In 1999, shortly after college and graduate school, she worked briefly as a Marine Science Postdoctoral Fellow at SSU. Soon after she was assigned by the Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC) of NOAA Fisheries to develop a Cooperative Marine Education and Research (CMER) program at the university, the first of its kind at a historically black university. She currently oversees NOAA Sponsored Programs at SSU. Her research with undergraduate and graduate students focuses on the ecology of marine invertebrates. Her program also hosts a marine science camp for local students and the African American Fisherman Oral History Project. Her work with students garnered her the Emmeline Moore Prize from the American Fisheries Society in 2016, their highest award for an individual whose life work has contributed to diversity in fisheries.
