Hello! I’m a senior from New Jersey majoring in Earth Science with a concentration in Environmental Science. Some of my favorite environmental classes have been ENVS 4600: Environmental Policy, EESC 2600: Stratigraphy, and ENVS 3700: GIS Mapping Places and Analyzing Spaces, which allow me to explore the interdisciplinary nature of the field. My favorite sustainability related experience has been working with students at Paul Robeson High School in West Philadelphia to share their experience with climate change and take action as a part of the My Climate Story project with PPEH. In addition to the UAB, I also do research in the Penn Paleoecology Lab, am a co-chair of the club Isla Urbana at Penn, and am the undergraduate representative for the Climate, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee for the department. In my free time, I enjoy watching movies, cooking, and exploring Philly!
