Jirayu Saengthawee (Bas)
PCGS Student Ambassador
BA in Global Sustainability, Sustainability Policy Concentration
Prospective Fall 2024 Graduate 

My name is Jirayu Saengthawee, but you can call me "Bas". I am originally from Thailand, and this is my final semester (Fall 2024) at Patel College, where I am concentrating on Sustainability Policy. I am currently interning at Marin County, the Department of Public Works Water Resources Division, Marin County Flood Control & Water Conservation District in San Rafael, California. This is a paid internship.

My position is Student Intern - Graduate (Researcher). In this role, I focus on examining current and historical government documents and policies related to the Marin County Flood Control & Water Conservation District鈥攕pecifically Flood Zone 1 (Novato). My research includes reviewing advisory board meeting reports, actions by the Board of Supervisors, and key technical studies. Additionally, I gather insights through interviews with long-time employees, which allows me to summarize the history of the Flood Zone, identify recurring themes, and uncover opportunities for more sustainable flood risk reduction projects that align with natural environmental processes. My work culminates in proposing actionable policies and solutions that adhere to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG), aimed at enhancing Marin County's sustainability in flood control and water conservation.

Bas's words of encouragement

As an international student, I know how challenging it can be to secure an internship, but I would encourage you not to give up. Start applying early, set clear goals for the type of internship you want, and stay determined. I believe that everyone can do it! If you need more information or tips, feel free to contact me; I鈥檓 happy to share my experience.

I would also like to thank all the professors who have supported me鈥擨 am so proud to be part of Patel College.
