Question: What grade are you in? 
Jack: I am a Junior this year at M-A.

Question: What MERO event are you most excited for?
Jack: The trip to Monterey! I want to see the animals again and spend time in nature and at the beach.  

Question: What was the best part about participating in MERO in 2017?
Jack: The sandwiches!* And going to Jasper Ridge. I liked seeing the animal prints, bones, and the scientific cameras.  I liked using the camera traps to see what types of animals live there.  


Question: Why are you excited about being the MERO 2019 student coordinator? 
Jack: I will be able to help people that do not speak English and help them be better in English and encourage them to stay in school.  I can also encourage them to learn more about science if that is something they want to do.  

Question: What do you like to do when you are not at school or MERO?
Jack: I like to go on long bike rides and fix bikes.  I also like to spend time with friends and eat or help them fix their bikes.  On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I work at McDonalds which is good for me because I get to practice my English with a lot of different people.  

Thank you Jack!  Stay tuned for a video tour with Jack at Jasper Ridge coming later this season!
