Plans

I am excited to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Environmental Engineering after high school with the hope of working to fix the Energy and Climate Crises. I will most likely go to Graduate School for a Master’s Degree. I am excited to attend classes taught by professionals in my field of interest and to get involved on campus and in the community with research and internships.
