Rowan Newell (Leg 4)
Hello! My name is Rowan Newell, I use he/him pronouns, and I am a sophomore in the College of Engineering intended to major in Mechanical Engineering. I have a passion for the fields of Ocean Engineering and Marine Technology, and I have worked on ROVs for about five years, from participating in the SeaPerch competition while in high school to joining the UWROV team in college and participating in the MATE competition. I am excited to work with the Visions 23 crew and have the opportunity to see ROV Jason in action, as well as learn more about the applications of ROVs in field research.
