I am passionate about environmental conservation and preservation. Growing up in Bermuda, I learned the importance of working together to accomplish goals, and the U.S. opened my eyes to many more environmental challenges and challenged my problem-solving. On my study abroad in Peru, I learned how important it is to assess the needs of a community before a change is implemented. I enjoy work that combines teamwork with needs assessments, to make environmentally conscious and forward-thinking decisions that reduce waste production and allow a positive and meaningful impact on the planet. I am open-minded to job opportunities that could help me develop and strengthen analytical reasoning, decision-making, and strengthen my communication skills.
