    Posted 2 days ago

    Hi everyone,

    I am so excited to share the latest episode of Geoscientists' Voices, featuring the brilliant Angelica Ovalle!

    Angelica is a NOAA CCME-II Scholar and Graduate Research Assistant at the Harte Research Institute. To put it simply: her interview is incredibly insightful. Whether you are interested in the technical side of coastal resilience or the human side of navigating a career in geoscience, there is something in here for you.

    🎥 Watch Episode 4 here: https://youtu.be/FQN-rFVkky4?si=PHuLbdjGvyJP3Tyj<response-element class="" ng-version="0.0.0-PLACEHOLDER"></response-element>

    Why you should tune in:

    • The Science: Angelica dives into the "Nurseries of the Sea"-our estuaries-and explains the vital role of invisible benthic species in keeping these ecosystems alive.

    • The Journey: She shares her inspiring, non-traditional path from the corporate and service sectors back to high-level academia. It is a powerful reminder to all of us that the path to becoming a scientist is rarely a straight line.

    Angelica's perspective is exactly what we need more of in our field. I highly encourage you to watch, subscribe to the channel to support these stories, and please share this post with your own networks to help us amplify these diverse voices!

    🗓️ Mark your calendars: New interviews are released every Wednesday at 11:00 AM EST.

    📢 We want to hear from YOU! I am actively looking for future guests. If you (or a colleague you admire) have a story to tell-even if we haven't met yet-please reach out to me directly. I am open to all suggestions and would love to help share your journey with the AGU community.

    Best

    Aleksei
