I am a student at Brown University who believes that a multidisciplinary approach is essential to solving society's toughest problems, and that belief is reflected in my diverse pursuits inside and outside the classroom. My history as a journalist and policymaker has nurtured my critical writing abilities while my exploration of software engineering and environmental research has equipped me with a wide range of technical skills. Most importantly, my internships with government agencies, non-profits, and academic institutions have supplied me with the confidence to collaborate and lead effectively.
