I currently work with another participant from my ASI year to deliver outreach and education along the Pacific Northwest coastline, focusing on tsunami science and coastal hazard resilience. This work directly addresses the needs of coastal communities and reflects the values and knowledge I gained through the ASI program.&#8221; &#8211; Ren\u00e9 Castillo<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think this, and another NSF program I completed in 2024, helped me solidify the type of work I want to focus on. At Texas A&amp;M I was a part of a geotechnical engineering group with a strong focus on laboratory experiments and transportation geotechnics. After the ASI program I realized that I wanted my work to revolve more around remote sensing and computational modeling of coastal processes than geotechnical engineering. That led me to move to Syracuse University where I can now focus my work on data-based methods to identify hazardous shoals in coastal inlets across the US.&#8221; &#8211; Clay Caldwell<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Question: Did you create any long lasting connections from your trip?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Answers:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I formed long lasting relationships with many of the other participants, and I continue to stay in touch with several of them. I also built meaningful connections with the instructors and mentors, and I see potential for these relationships to develop into future collaborations. The close-knit environment of the ASI program created a network of colleagues that I feel comfortable reaching out to as my career progresses.&#8221; &#8211; Claire Divola<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div
