On this Expedition:
On the RV Roger Revelle, my job as an engineer includes several areas of responsibility. The position is classified for a 6000 HP vessel. Because our engines are generators to power electric motors to drive the ship, everyone works with very advanced systems. Aboard the Revelle, there is a lot of equipment that we maintain. See the article on the engine area for more detail.

About myself:
I've always wanted to travel the world since I was a kid. My other passion in life is eating Mexican cuisine!
For Students:
It gives you the opportunity to tell sea stories when you get older.
