My passion for science lies in its capacity to propel innovation and discovery. Throughout high school, I have loved sharing this with others around me through STEM education initiatives and curriculum development. In my free time, I promote turtle and tortoise conservation, dance, and do escape rooms with my friends.
What I Do:
I enjoy collaborating with others and working towards a common goal. My involvement in Project Aquascope has taught me to problem-solve and find alternative solutions. I also speak Spanish!
What I Want:
I look forward to using our platform to empower local and international students to adopt sustainable habits that will preserve our watersheds. As youth, we have the responsibility to care for and preserve our world for future generations.

What I like:
I am passionate about increasing availability of a STEM education, as well as empowering young people with the skills they need to make their visions of positive, sustainable change a reality, regardless of the size of the impact. In my free time, I like to read, draw, and listen to music. I’m also an Avatar enthusiast (not the blue people one)!
What I Do:
Over the past few years, I have been able to teach younger students on topics ranging from parliamentary debate to basic environmental science, which has enabled me to improve my listening and collaboration skills.
What I Want:
I hope that through this project, I will be able to improve on my own collaboration and time management skills. I hope that the students will also be able to make a small difference in their communities. I would also hope that we will eventually be able to bring our stormwater curriculum to a larger audience, and further our impact.
Sarah Datta
What I like:
I’m a senior with a passion for educational outreach and science. Hoping to major in Biology, I’ve spent my high school years exploring science in any way I can: writing for my school science magazine, making curriculum for international schools, tutoring elementary school students in STEM, and much more. In my free time, you can find me playing the piano, reading, or writing.
What I Do:
I’m a great communicator with the ability to take abstract ideas and turn them into actionable items through the written word or presentations. I work well with others, and I can confidently step into leadership roles and propel a team to success.
What I Want:
Through this project, I hope to raise awareness about storm water runoff and our impact on the environment. I’m also excited to meet people as dedicated to sustainability as I am, as well as form connections with local schools and students. In the future, I hope to see this project expand internationally!
Luke Young
What I like:
I’m a junior who loves learning. I love spending hours upon hours reading about new topics and just absorbing the mountains of knowledge out there in the world. I have spent much of my childhood studying various sciences, from learning about meteorology and ecology through science olympiad, to diving deep into chemistry with AP chem. In my free time I love to read various articles and books that peak my interest.
What I Do:
My interest is in helping young kids gain a passion for learning. I’ve practiced collaboration skills by working with various teams on various projects. Whether that be with the speech and debate team on organizing tournaments or working with other tutors to setup a free and accessible tutoring service for little kids.
What I Want:
I wish to be able to educate about the potential harm to runoff. I would love to be able to work with other members of this wonderful community in realizing some of the major harm that our runoff is causing and work to develop solutions. I am also incredibly hopeful that I will be able to meet some truly great people on this wonderful project.
