Founder of Court & Cast
Amy Kukulya is a marine robotics engineer, patented inventor, and ocean explorer who studies sharks and turtles with robots for a living — and still makes it back in time for a good tennis match.
Her Story
As co-inventor of the REMUS SharkCam, Amy helped build the autonomous underwater vehicle that films predators in the deep — work that moved from lab reports to Discovery Channel's Shark Week and National Geographic's SharkFest.
Amy designs and deploys autonomous vehicles to study sharks and sea turtles in their natural environment — extending human reach far beneath the surface and into some of the world's most remote waters.
From Antarctica's pack ice to the drifting floes of the Arctic and Greenland's calving glaciers, Amy has worked on, under, and inside the ice — logging missions across all seven continents.
A licensed captain, certified tennis pro, and Explorers Club Fellow, Amy brings the same competitive, all-in spirit to every dive, deployment, and rally she steps into.
