I am a third year student at the University of Florida pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Environmental Science. I am dedicated to furthering coastal and marine conservation efforts through research and outreach.
My interests in marine and coastal systems developed through my efforts of fauna identification and processing in the Coastal and Marine Ecology lab at UF.
During my summer in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, I studied coastal systems abroad, enhancing my skills through a new cultural and ecological context.
Volunteering for Creekside Environmental Education for Kids (CrEEk) and the UF/IFAS NCBS K-12 Outreach programs has strengthened my commitment to environmental education.
I am working toward the goal of creating and leading community and research efforts like those I have been lucky to be a part of.
