Meet Sam, one of our incredible mentors for our Girls in STEM: Water Wonders program happening October 18-20! My name is Sam Bagge, and I am a Master's student at the University of Utah working with the non-profit The Returning Rapids Project. My project aims to document and calculate the amount of sediment deposited by Lake Powell that is being remobilized into the river system, thus into the reservoir and reducing its water capacity. I grew up in southwest Colorado, where I ran rivers, skied, went fishing, and did many other outdoor activities. In college, I received degrees in geosciences, geography, and sustainability studies, which now translate to my work where equitable, sustainable water solutions for all are at the forefront of all my work. One of my favorite things is working with students and the privilege of inspiring them to understand themselves and the world around them better. This is by empowering each other and learning more about the water systems that our lives rely on. Limited spots available, so secure your spot now for an empowering weekend, October 18th-20nd. Register today and spark your passion for learning!
