Maximilian Genetti Originally from Los Gatos, California Why are you at UCSC? "Since my first biology class I have always been fascinated with genetics. It was when I was applying to colleges that I learned about how UCSC was involved with the Human Genome Project and what it was continuing to do with bioinformatics and single molecule detection that that I knew it was where I needed to go." What do you like to do outside the lab? "Scuba Diving is the best hobby I ever picked up. Everything from exploring the ocean at 60 feet down, navigating kelp forests, getting followed by sea lions, and struggling out of a cold wetsuit are all part of why I do it." Renee Jocic (Captain) Originally from Rancho Palos Verdes, CA What interested you about iGem? "iGem gave me the opportunity to lead a team of undergraduates and participate in the experimental design of a research project. iGem is my starting line in making a difference. In the future, I intend to dedicate myself to alleviating the world's energy problems." What do you like to do outside the lab? "I enjoy kickboxing, yoga and video games. I am a fan of the "Game of Thrones" series and classic novels by Hemingway and Fitzgerald." Christopher Lee Originally from Riverside, California What interested you about iGem? "I wanted to join the iGEM after informally participating in last years project as a consultant. In addition, synthetic biology has been a rather small part of my time here at UCSC, and iGEM presented a perfect opportunity to learn more about it as a field." What do you like to do outside the lab? "My main hobbies include powerlifting and basketball, as well as discussing general health and nutrition." Jazel Hernandez Originally from Gonzales, California Why are you at UCSC? "I am currently a sophomore at Hartnell Community College in Salinas, CA but I came to UCSC for a summer internship opportunity with iGEM. I do plan to attend UCSC in the Fall of 2015, and I chose Santa Cruz because I really like the research that the university has and its a beautiful campus." What do you like to do outside the lab? "I enjoy cooking and eating along with spending time with family and friends. I like going to the beach and walking along the shore looking for pretty shells. I also enjoy horseback riding and swimming." Mary Lenore Pafford Originally from College Park, Maryland Why are you at UCSC? "My senior year of high school I was Googling tools to teach myself more about genetics, and I found the UCSC Human Genome Browser. Further research showed me both the school and the major of bioinformatics. It quickly became my first choice school." What do you like to do outside the lab? "I enjoy handy work, like carpentry, a skill I learned volunteering for Habitat for Humanity. This interest includes a deep desire to improve current construction materials and methods. This year I researched, and gave a technical presentation on, my favorite subject: alternative toilets." Dominic Schenone Originally from Etna, California Why are you at UCSC? "I am interested in both robotics and synthetic biology. When looking for colleges I learnt of UCSC’s bioengineering program and their large impact on genetics and biology; particularly the Human Genome Project. When I visited the campus I fell in love with the atmosphere and the area." What do you like to do outside the lab? "I enjoy sailing on my Catamaran and have been an avid Skier all my life. I also love my job as a tutor of both math and chemistry and like to help out students acclimating to college classes and workload" Saumya Singh Originally from San Jose, California What interested you about iGem? "I wanted to work on a diverse team in order to tackle a world problem, especially one which would lead to a greener future." What do you like to do outside the lab? "I enjoy hiking, camping, rock climbing." Kaylee Walker Originally from Los Osos, California What interested you about iGem? "iGEM gives a unique opportunity to become involved as an undergraduate in all areas of a research undertaking, from planning and fundraising to wet lab work; in our case, we are also striving to create a sustainably sourced biofuel, a topic of great interest and relevance." What do you like to do outside the lab? "Outside of school, I enjoy art and music; specifically, I play the accordion and piano and try my hand at scientific and naturalist illustration."
