Sierra Bornheim '24: "I am researching diets of juvenile sea turtles! I used samples from ten years of trips to the Gulf of Mexico to construct an estimation of what these turtles are eating." 🐻🌟 Photo taken as a part of permitted research by the UCF MTRG.

Life update: in the past month, I graduated from Brown with honors with a double major in human evolution and biology, helped my sailing team win the Fowle trophy for best overall performance this season, and took the trip of a lifetime to Australia!

Liam was a million things to me: a teammate, an inspiration, the first guy I ever kissed for fake money, a teacher, and a friend. Love you forever bling bling 🤎
