Full Fathom Five Marine was founded in 2022 by Jessica Cook Hale, RPA, PhD, to offer critical services for cultural resource management needs in submerged contexts.

FFF focuses primarily on pre-contact archaeology and Quaternary geology, to ensure that these components of environmental impact assessments for undertakings conform to the highest scientific standards. However, our capabilities also include historical research, report production to specific agency standards, and data analysis.

Dr. Cook Hale brings a strong background in geosciences and anthropological archaeology to the table at FF5. She has nearly 20 years of experience in scientific diving and over 20 years of experience in archaeological geophysics. She has worked on both terrestrial and submerged sites in Europe as well as North America.
