Hello, 

My name is Jonathan Raymond. I will be joining the crew of the F.G. Walton Smith out of the Rosenstiel School in Miami on February 18th. I’m originally from New Hampshire. While I have a bachelor’s degree in anthropology, I have always had an interest in boats and fixing things. This interest led me to enroll in the Marine Systems Program at IYRS School of Technology and Trades in Newport, RI where I have been living the last 6 months. I’m very excited to start my internship and gain more experience running and maintaining research equipment out in the field.
