Jhamieka Greenwood joined the Unidata Program Center as a student summer intern on May 29, 2023. After receiving a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry from Florida A&M University, she worked with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection before earning a Master's degree in Computational Science from Florida State University (FSU). Jhamieka is now pursuing a PhD in Computational Science at FSU.
“It’s been amazing working at UCAR’s Unidata as an intern! I have been learning so much and meeting so many people in the atmospheric science community,” says Jhamieka. “Already, I have been able to expand my knowledge of graphic visualization of atmospheric data using PyVista and Rapids.” In the first weeks of her time at Unidata this summer, Jhamieka has begun incorporating her work into interactive Jupyter notebooks to assist fellow learners. “These will be great skills to bring back to my work at my Computational Science PhD program,” she adds.
This summer, Jhamieka will be working on a hydrodynamic solver to investigate atmosphere-fire interactions related to her PhD research. “I also find educational outreach important in academia,” she says. “It is important to share knowledge, and Unidata is a perfect fit because we both share that goal.”
Please join us in welcoming Jhamieka to the Program Center for the summer!
