I'm a senior studying marine biology at UC Santa Cruz. I'm interested in marine conservation and research and hope to work at the intersections of conservation planning, research, and communication. I plan to attend graduate school for marine biology and hope to conduct research on coral reef ecosystems. I'm currently working on a senior thesis on elephant seal habitat distributions using analysis of drone images. I also work as a Carbon Neutrality Fellow and communicate with students about renewable energy and climate action goals as part of my position. In my free time I enjoy playing tennis, swimming, and exploring new places.
