About Me

I am an aspiring aquatic ecologist based in Pittsburgh, PA studying as a PhD student at the University of Pittsburgh. Through my academic and professional endeavors, I have found ways to incorporate water, community health, and urban ecology into my research and work. While pursuing my goals, I have sought pathways for the next generation of underrepresented and first-gen aquatic scientists to succeed in freshwater science. 

Academic History

At Binghamton University (SUNY) I sought to build foundations as a biogeochemist through pursuit of a bachelors degree in Environmental Science with a Concentration in Ecosystem Studies. 

​

At the University of Pittsburgh I am a first year PhD student studying Geology and Environmental Sciences in Dr. Emily Elliott's Isotope Tracers lab

Involvement

In my free time, I have shared my love for science through multiple avenues, including as a member of the Society for Freshwater Science's Emerge Fellowship and as a former founding member of Home Run Against Drug's "Emerging Environmental Leaders" program
