Giorgio Sarro

  • PhD Student, University of Chicago

Hi, my name is Giorgio Sarro, and I am currently a Senior here at UWM. Like many of my peers at Innovative Weather, my passion for science and meteorology started at a young age. During my childhood, I spent my time observing cloud formations or admiring the structures of snowflakes from the scenic ridges of the islands of Sicily to the slopes of the Alps. I was lucky to live in Italy, Germany, France and now the US, experiencing different climates and cultures. When I first moved to Milwaukee, my only objective was: I want to become a meteorologist!. Innovative Weather has been one of the most important experiences during my studies, as it gave me the opportunity to be a meteorologist while still earning my degree. Additionally, through this experience I learned how much work is still needed to improve our current understanding of the atmosphere, motivating me to go further than my bachelor. In the next few years I plan in obtaining a PhD, and later become a research scientist or a professor. Innovative Weather will always have a special place in my formation as a professional of the atmosphere.
