With a Master of Science in Renewable Natural Resources from Louisiana State University, I've transitioned to the role of Urban Forestry Coordinator at Texas Trees Foundation. My core competencies lie in environmental sustainability, a field where I have applied my knowledge to promote green initiatives and project effectively.During my tenure as a Graduate Research Assistant, our team made significant strides in understanding the water-use traits of baldcypress in changing climates. We demonstrated how effluent additions influence growth and transpiration, knowledge that I now leverage to enhance urban forestry practices. In my current role, I am driven by a commitment to sustainability and the integration of environmental research within community projects, striving to bring innovative perspectives to the team.
