What is your major? Marine Biology
How did you become interested in this major or field? I have spent most of my life in or around the ocean. When I was younger, science was always my strongest subject. In the seventh grade, I decided that I wanted to become a marine biologist.
Where do you see yourself five years from now? I would like to work with NOAA doing invertebrate research. I am not sure what I would like to work with, but Transects will give me a better idea.
What part of the research on this trip has interested you the most? The beam trawl seems the most interesting. I also like the Neuston net with all of the copepods, larvae and chaetognaths.
What part of the research has interested you the least? I like it all.
Did you get sea sick on this trip? No
