Hello Everyone,
My name is Colton Borresen. I received my Bachelor of Science; Biology from Georgia Southern University-Armstrong and I am attending Savannah State University for my Master of Science in Marine Sciences. I should be defending my thesis this summer, but I happily postponed it for this opportunity. I am thrilled to be selected as a UNOLS-MATE Intern for the transit cruise of the R/V Langseth from Cape Town, South Africa to New York. Most of my studies, research and internships have been focused on the biology side of the Marine Sciences and I am excited to get this exposure to a wide range of marine technologies, equipment, and marine technical professionals.
I enjoy SCUBA diving, soccer, music, and everything about sharks!! But most of all I just cannot wait until I am no longer a “college student”!
I am looking forward to sharing my experiences during this cruise with regular blog postings. Stay tuned!!!
