Dr. Isis Mejias Carpio holds a Chemical Engineering Degree from University of Houston and joint PhD from Universities of Sao Paulo and Houston.  She is currently working with Forum Energy Technologies as a Sales/Process Manager based in Houston.  Her Rotary classification is Oil and Gas
       Dr. Mejias, a Rotary Global Scholar to Brazil sponsored by the Humble Rotary Club, was invited by Rotary to lead a team of six to Uganda to identify a large water project. She submitted a 115 page report to WASRAG which led to the $301,000 water, sanitation and education Global Grant that attracted funding from 21 Rotary Clubs and 17 Districts in 8 Countries.
       Isis was recently one of two panelists on a Rotary Webinar talking about her experiences as a scholar in Sao Paulo and developing Global Grants in Brazil, Kenya and Uganda and her trips to Uganda to help prepare a $300,000 water, sanitation and health Global Grant for that country.  See photo below.
       She has spoken at District Conferences of D 5630 in Calgary and D 5890 in Houston. She also appeared on two panels at the Rotary Convention in Sao Paulo and has been the subject of a story on the Rotary website.
      We are pleased to accept her transfer of active membership from the Rotary Club of Humble.  Why did she transfer?  She explains, "I now have a very
demanding job that will require some travel, so the e-club works perfectly for me."  What are her interests in being an Active Rotarian?   "I would be
interested in creating new global grants within the water and sanitation or the education and literacy areas of focus. I would also like to create new partnerships with other Rotary clubs and engage more with Wasrag activities.
Welcome to our Rotary e-club of Houston!
