My name is Luke Dorrian and I am a 5th year Environmental Engineering and Ocean Sciences student at Georgia Tech. I have really taken an interest in Physical Oceanography as a career & intend to pursue a PhD in it after undergraduate school. I've also started
to get involved with climate modeling at my school working under Dr. Takamitsu Ito to analyze E3SM model's ability to project SSTs for various basins and to devise what can be improved to make a better model output.</div>

I recently came across this team online and wanted to reach out for advice on getting involved with the team. Ocean Circulation fascinates me, particularly thermohaline circulation/AMOC & I would love to pursue a career in which I can use my skills in climate
modeling to learn more about the ocean. Does the ECCO team ever recruit interns, or are there other positions in which an undergraduate can join? If not, what do you suggest that I can do to start standing out as a candidate for applications in the future?</div>
