Ms. Dawn Tucker received her SeaPerch Instructor’s training from the Office of Naval Research (ONR) in September of 2015. Prior to her training with the ONR SeaPerch training she served as SeaPerch advisor for the Phi-Sigma Beta Youth Mentoring Club. Last fall Dawn served as a visiting instructor at Pace for the SWAG (STEM Women Achieve Greatness) 9 week course. The SWAG program engaged high school girls with technology concepts and included building a SeaPerch.


The SWAG program included an Arduino component that which students learned how to program and attach sensors to completed SeaPerch ROV’s for water testing. Dawn is current instructing a SeaPerch course for a STEM enrichment program which targets underserved middle school students in Mount Vernon. In addition to the SeaPerch program, Dawn instructs students through various STEM initiates such as Intro to Programming with Alice and Legos Robotics. Dawn is currently working on her Robotics Specialization Certification from the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Engineering and Applied Science through a robotics outreach program.



Hi, my name is Alexa Piccoli and I am a current security services consultant at IBM within the Identity and Access Management Team! Before joining IBM in October, I work for the Department of the Navy doing risk assessments and Pen-testing on the landing and launching systems on aircraft carriers. I enjoyed my previous job and am having fun learning more about different aspects of security in my new role! Before starting my career, I attended Pace as an undergrad as well as a Master’s student! I graduated in 2015 with my Bachelor’s of Information Technology and then in 2016, with my Master’s in Computer Science as a NSF CyberCorps Scholar! I am grateful for the opportunities Pace has given me and am excited to be back!
