In celebration of earth day, alumni, faculty, and members of the USF community
gathered at the historic Filoli Estate for an afternoon on sustainability. 🌱💧

USF members learned about the university's transformative endeavor, the One
Earth Initiative from Acting Dean Jeffrey Paris of the College of Arts and
Sciences and Program Director of Energy Systems Management, Fred Wellington. The
initiative aims at fostering sustainability and addressing global challenges
through campus experiences that aid in understanding environmental impacts and
environmental justice.

🏆🚀 USF students Owen Sordillo ‘24 and Andrew Saah ‘25 were recently awarded a
$100,000 grant after winning NASA’s Wildfire Climate Tech Challenge.

Saah, an environmental science major, and Sordillo, an entrepreneurship and
innovation major, met when they were randomly assigned suitemates in Lone
Mountain East. Two years later, they combined what they learned at USF to win
the NASA contest.

🛰️ The students’ startup, Silvaye, will develop software that uses NASA
technology, satellite data, and ground-based sensors to measure how much brush
and vegetation exists on properties as a way to assess the wildfire risk.

Silvaye will provide accurate information to homeowners, insurance companies,
and agencies like the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection,
with a goal of reducing the risk of wildfires.

💭 For the NASA challenge, Saah and Sordillo named their submission FLARE, for
Fuel Load Analysis and Risk Estimation. The team has earned funding and
admittance to a startup incubator at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in
Southern California. Saah and Sordillo will be there this week.

➡️” We spent a lot of time on this. It was helpful to have the Geospatial
Analysis Lab (GSAL) at USF — and to take Fernanda Lopez Ornelas’ class.” -
Andrew Saah

Sordillo plans to spend the summer working on Silvaye while Saah interns at the
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

➡️ “Andrew and Owen have been working hard to build their FLARE project over the
course of this semester. Throughout this project they have leveraged Andrew’s
environmental science knowledge on geospatial analysis and terrestrial laser
scanning and Owen’s focus on entrepreneurship.” Michelle Millar, associate dean
of School of Management undergraduate programs

➡️ “It is really gratifying to see these students using their training to solve
real-world problems. We are so proud of their success in this national
competition.” - Calla Schmidt, chair of the Environmental Science department
