Audrey Djunaedi

Undergraduate Student, UW (Leg 2)

As a freshman, Audrey intended to double degree in music and engineering before her curiosity about the marine world inspired her to double major in fisheries and oceanography instead. She hopes to incorporate her at-sea experience with the Regional Scales Nodes program into science education programs, sharing this new perspective on our oceans with students and the general public. On the ship, it is not uncommon to find her peering through a microscope into the amazingly diverse world of plankton.
