In 2019, I received a dual B.A. in Chemistry and Environmental Studies from Austin College in Sherman, TX. Currently, I am a Ph.D. candidate researching various spectroscopic methods of monitoring environmental arsenic transformation. I am also passionate about the intersection of social justice and environmental science education. Outside of research, I enjoy horseback riding, cooking, playing video games (Stardew Valley, Legend of Zelda, Eldin Ring), hiking, and painting.
