Summer Students

Bolor is a rising senior at Albany High School. He loves to watch tv shows, movies, and hang out with his friends. This summer, he is interning at UC Berkeley RadWatch and is interested in computer science and plans to pursue it in college.

Brian is a rising senior at Lynbrook High School. This summer he looked at the relationships between rainfall and radiation. He is interested in math, science, and engineering and hopes to pursue those passions in college.

David is a junior at Albany High School who is interested in computer science. He is a swimmer and loves to go skiing. He developed a web tool for data visualisation that can dynamically restrict the data viewed by its timestamp.

Ethan is a rising senior at Castro Valley High School. He is interested in coding and data science. He’s currently working on studying the relationship between air quality (specifically from the last few fire seasons) and radiation. In his free time, he like to play tennis, violin, and basketball.

Ethan Irwin is a rising Junior at Albany High School. He enjoys skateboarding, watching sports, hanging out with friends, and is interested in pursuing a career in Computer Science. This Summer he is working on setting up and collecting data from a distance sensor.

Gaurav Agarwal is a rising senior at Dublin High. He is currently an intern at UC Berkeley RadWatch and is working on a peak detection algorithm for radiation data that finds time ranges of interest. He is interested in computer science and engineering, and plans to pursue it in college.

Josue Banuelos is an undergraduate student majoring in Applied Mathematics at the University of California, Merced. He is pursuing a math teaching career through the CalTeach Program.

Katrina is a junior at Dougherty Valley High. Some of her passions include playing piano, rock climbing, swimming, and, of course, programming.

Kevin Yan is a rising senior at Albany High School. He enjoys playing basketball, watching movies, going snowboarding, and also enjoys sneaker culture. He is a diehard Charlotte Hornets fans. He is interested in Computer Science and plans on pursuing a career in Computer Science.

Rachael is a third year Electrical Engineering and Computer Science major who is planning on obtaining a teaching credential with Calteach. During her free time, she loves to play games, like Stardew Valley and Genshin Impact, and enjoys watching cartoons. In summer 2021, she worked on creating a graphical interface for the mobile version of the DoseNet sensor so it can be used more easily and by a wide array of people.

Richie is a Senior at Dublin High School. In summer 2021, he determined a correlation between wind speed and direction against radiation counts from Dosenet’s sensors. In summer 2020 he helped evaluate the accuracy of Dosenet’s air quality sensors using Python. In his free time, he likes to swim and write, and is pursuing a career in the biomedical field.

Salma is a physical science teacher in Oakland with a physics degree from UC Santa Cruz. She analyzed data between air quality and radiation levels for Radwatch during Summer 2020.

Sanjitha is a rising sophomore at Dublin High School with a passion for computer science and writing. She compared radiation levels to uranium and thorium concentrations for RadWatch in summer 2021.
