I am currently a Sustainability Associate with the Greater Portland Council of Government's Sustainability Team. The Sustainability Team aids local towns in municipal planning projects that increase sustainable practices. Projects include assessing and reporting on climate resilience and greenhouse gas emissions. We collaborate with town staff and community members to recommend actions to mitigate the hazards posed by climate change, as well as their own impact on climatic warming. In 2021 I received my B.A. in Biochemistry from the University of South Florida. I also completed a minor in Environmental Science and Policy and graduated with honors through the Judy Genshaft Honors College.I am seeking to develop connections with sustainability-driven professionals and organizations. My passion lies in assisting communities in building social, environmental, and economic resilience, and prioritizing equity in planning.
