Future Career Goals:

I hope to become a Marine Biologist who works directly with species like corals, marine mammals, various types of fish, and more. I hope to monitor species migration, and population sizes, and to study the overall health of marine environments throughout the ocean.

Top 3 Goals for your time abroad:

2. I hope to learn and practice how to do scuba diving in the application of our coral reef studies with the idea that I will continue to train and do this in my future work.
3. I hope to network with my peers in the program who have similar interests and areas of study as me with hopes of later collaboration in the research sector.
