I taught a lecture-based course titled Introduction to Environmental Health Sciences to ~180 undergraduate students at UMass Amherst. I'm passionate about inclusive and evidence based teaching and connecting environmental health to issues that matter to my students.

Amherst, MA

As a visiting scholar, I developed grants to improve research experiences for first generation undergraduates and to address air quality exposures in rural, low-income areas in the United States.

Chapel Hill, NC

As an environmental exposure scientist, I aim to connect human health with their exposures where they are. My current research involves studying indoor chemistry in the context of damp homes. Incidences of respiratory ailments are often elevated in damp homes. Much work has been done to study biological exposures to mold and mildews in these spaces, but.

Elizabeth, New Jersey

As field service engineer, I worked hands on in the field to collect data and maintain, service, and install air quality instruments. These instruments, the BAM 1020 and FRM, collected and measured fine particulate matter in the air.

Responsibilities: Coordinating field sampling and water quality monitoring among two sites, statistically analyzing data, writing reports, working in the lab, and organizing volunteers.

Responsibilities: Organizing experimental logistics and conducting field and lab experiments.

Doctor Of Philosophy (Ph.D.), Environmental Exposure Science

Dissertation title: “Water-soluble organic gases in residential indoor air and the potential for aqueous chemistry indoors to alter.

Bachelor Of Science (B.S.), Environmental Science, Cum Laude

Activities and Societies: President's Leadership Scholar, Chemistry Club (President), Alpha Chi Honor Society (Vice President), Natural.
