Earth Science and Policy, with Sustainability Leadership Minor, Class of 2020

My passion for the outdoors has inspired me to pursue a career in preserving and protecting the environment, while also ensuring a sustainable future for society and our earth as a whole. Growing up in Hollidaysburg, PA I learned to be an outdoor enthusiast. Currently I am an intern at Penn State’s Sustainability Institute for the City Semester Program and previously interned with the Green Building Alliance as a Pittsburgh 2030 District intern. Outside of my studies and internship I enjoy being a competing member of Penn State’s Western Equestrian Team.

Statement of Aspiration: “My aspiration is to help achieve a more sustainable future. My hope in doing so is to help encourage others find passion in the environment and society as well.”
