Welcoming Our SciStarter Interns: Mariana, Stephen, and Caroline

SciStarter is welcoming some new interns to our team! Here they are to tell you about their projects. We encourage you to leave a comment to say hello, and don’t be shy about reaching out to them directly about their projects.

Hi everyone! My name is Mariana Surillo, and I am a sophomore at Saint Joseph’s University. I’m majoring in Environmental Science, with a minor in Economics.

I am really excited to be a part of SciStarter. Right now I am focusing in researching citizen science projects based in Philadelphia that can be showcased in the 76ers game on February 18. I am looking forward to networking and engaging with scientists, researchers, and citizen volunteers in Philadelphia and to have the opportunity to learn as much as I can from this experience. E-mail me at mariana@scistarter.com!

Hi everyone, my name is Stephen Mellett and I am currently a junior at Saint Joseph’s University. I’m majoring in Economics with an interest in the housing market. 

With SciStarter, I will be researching projects to promote at the 76ers game in February and the Philadelphia Science Festival while working alongside with project organizers and teammates. Through hard work I hope to bring something unique and special to the organization that we as a whole can benefit from! E-mail me at stephen@scistarter.com!

Lily Bui

Although she holds dual non-science bachelors’ degrees in International Studies and Spanish from the University of California Irvine, Lily has long harbored a proclivity for the sciences. A daughter of an engineer and an accountant who also happen to be a photographer and musician, respectively, Lily grew up on the nexus between science and art. Lily has worked on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.; served a year in AmeriCorps in Montgomery County, Maryland; worked for a New York Times bestselling ghostwriter in California; and performed across the U.S. as a touring musician. She currently works with WGBH-TV Boston and Public Radio Exchange (PRX) in Cambridge. In her spare time, she thinks of cheesy science puns (mostly to entertain herself). // Tweets @dangerbui
