I am a University of Massachusetts Amherst Graduate with a bachelor's degree in Communication. Although I loved my major, I am hoping my career path can heavily relate to my minor, Natural Resources Conservation. I have also received my Permaculture certificate through UMass. Growing up, leaders around me such as my parents and teachers could see how well I worked/learned hands on. Being outdoors as well as connected to nature was when I was both happiest and most motivated. Both of these aspects still hold true today. Working with a concentration in the environment motivates me greatly. In the future I would love to continue with these ideals, taking my communication skills and combining them with my passion for the outdoors.
