We’re thrilled to share that Sergio Torres Gabarda , our incredible Aquarium Scientific Officer of the SIMS Tech Team, has been awarded the National Excellence Award for Tertiary Technical Staff at the annual Western Sydney University TechNet Conference!

With over a decade of dedicated service to SIMS, our partners, and the community—and a remarkable career in Chile before joining us—Sergio’s expertise, energy, and humor make him an invaluable asset to our institution.

Congratulations, Sergio, on this well-deserved recognition!
