   personal_statement: Sarah recently graduated from Washington State University
     where she earned her doctorate using Python to address key weaknesses in weather
     models over the Arctic. Her research interests include climate change, surface-atmosphere
     interactions, numerical modeling, and model validation. She has a passion for
     Python programming and a love for New England, so she is thrilled to be able
     to apply her Python experience to projects that are closer to home! In her spare
     time, Sarah enjoys helping others learn how they can use data science techniques
     efficiently in their own research by teaching introduction to programming workshops.
