Claire Neaton

Claire Neaton and her sister, Emma Teal Laukitis, grew up on a homestead called Stonewall Place on the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. They have worked on their family’s commercial fishing boats in the Bering Sea since they were young. Born from summers fishing with their family, Emma and Claire’s appreciation for their unique upbringing and for sustainable fisheries became central to many of their pursuits, including starting their seafood and apparel company, Salmon Sisters. Claire studied business and nutrition at the University of Vermont.
