After graduating from IWU, Sarah Lewis ’07 “went to sea working as a deckhand after following the advice of IWU’s own Dr. Will Jaeckle,” she wrote.  She then received a commission with NOAA Corp as an ensign and sailed as a third mate on their research vessels for a couple of years, before returning to school to earn a marine engineering degree and resigning her commission.  Next month, she begins working on nuclear submarines in Portsmouth Naval Yard.
