About me

I am a second-year student at the University of Washington studying Environmental Science and Informatics, with a minor in Diversity. As I pursue my degree, my academic and personal passions lie at the intersection of research, environmental justice, and inclusive outreach.

As the incoming Grant and Project Coordinator, I aspire to support active and prospective project teams throughout the grant process, from application to implementation and long-term success. I aim to cultivate a community of on-campus partners and resources, focusing on empowering project leaders who are advancing justice-centered sustainability.

My research experience broadly lies within anthropogenic pollution and climate change through data science. I am currently conducting research with NOAA, using quantitative methods to analyze oral histories to study the effects of climate change in the Bering Sea. Outside of research, I am an officer for the Program on Climate Change Undergraduate Cohort, a Brotherhood Initiative PeerMentor, and an Undergraduate Research Leader. 

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, listening to music, exploring Seattle, and playing basketball.
