About me
Within my professional journey, I’ve had the privilege of leading environmental justice programs rooted in gratitude, reciprocity, community care, cultural heritage, and sustainability. My work has focused on celebrating and uplifting the voices of BIPOC and frontline communities, whose deep-rooted knowledge have long offered holistic and interconnected perspectives on sustainability. I’ve worked alongside communities to develop initiatives that prioritize sustainability and justice, engaging in collaborative projects, educational programming, and conversations that center the voices and experiences of marginalized groups.
As I pursue my Master of Public Administration with a focus on environmental and social policy, I’m continuing to explore the intersections of community-led sustainability and social equity. I’m passionate about addressing environmental injustices that disproportionately impact marginalized communities while building pathways for connection, collaboration, and empowerment. My goal is to support communities in reclaiming their narratives and create spaces that nurture resilience, healing, and well-being at the core of the environmental justice movement.
At the Campus Sustainability Fund, I’m excited to build meaningful relationships with students and partners, understand sustainability through multiple lenses, and learn from the innovative projects students bring. I’m looking forward to advancing efforts to decolonize sustainability practices and challenge systems that perpetuate environmental injustice. I hope to help create a campus culture where justice and sustainability are fully intertwined, sparking collective action across the university for a more equitable and sustainable future.
Outside of my professional work, I find joy in organizing backpacking trips centering community and connection. I also love spending time with friends, trying new activities, and being creative through art, music, dance, and wacky food combinations.
