Aisha Rashid is a recent University of Washington graduate with dual degrees in marine biology and oceanography. During her time at UW, Rashid received a Husky 100 nod in 2024, served as captain of the equestrian team, and helped lead the College of the Environment’s student advisory council as co-chair.
In this episode of FieldSound, Rashid shares audio from her experience aboard the research vessel Thomas G. Thompson as part of her senior thesis project in American Samoa, highlighting the transformative impact of hands-on research in marine geology and geophysics, particularly underwater volcanism. Rashid illustrates the powerful role of ocean technology in understanding our planet's most critical ecosystems.
She also shares about her current work with Wild Orca, a research nonprofit under Dr. Deborah Giles, and contributes to crucial research on Southern Resident killer whales using a non-invasive research technique - a scent detection dog trained to sniff out killer whale feces. With a commitment to impactful climate solutions, she plans to pursue further studies after a gap year dedicated to research and community engagement.
Rashid embodies the spirit of innovation and collaboration, ready to tackle the challenges of climate change and research ocean solutions. Join us as we dive into her inspiring journey!
