  • What you miss most about the Summer Research programI miss the interaction with the mentors on a very casual basis. While some of the seminars were long, it was good to be able to have a one on one discussion with the presenters. There were a great opportunities, all around.
  • What you miss least about the program: When in the field, it is always a good idea to have back-up power for your equipment. 
  • What about the program has stuck with youI continue to challenge the boundaries by asking more questions.
  • Have you stayed in touch with other Summer Students? While graduate school is challenging and busy, I have a chance to get in touch with my ol' pals from time to time.
  • Did your Summer Research experience support or change your school/career plans? The REU experience definitely has had a big impact in my career plans and as I continue to plug in I find it a good experience. The support system from the administration made it easy.
  • What are you up to now? Currently working to complete my master's degree in environmental science and public health.
