Daniel Kessler
Daniel was born in Washington, DC and grew
up in Rockville, Maryland. He moved to southern California when
he was 3. Daniel’s first interest in science was meteorology.
He loved to explore the environments of the beach, desert, and
mountains, all of which were located within 2 hours of his house
by car.
When Daniel was 11, he moved back to the DC
area. Daniel’s interest in meteorology continued to grow
through middle and high school. He was able to visit the
headquarters of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA), as well as a few meteorologists at a news
station. He also took some courses in high school that focused
on Earth science.
Currently, Daniel is majoring in geography
as an undergraduate student at the University of Maryland. He
plans to have a career in climatology or urban planning.
