I am evaluating salt marsh restoration efforts, analyzing soil samples and carbon storage. The research findings are helping us better understand how restored marshes recover and contribute to climate resilience, guiding future restoration projects.
I am excited to learn more about climate research and to contribute to work that helps preserve the environment for future generations. As a student at Tulane University, I am studying chemical engineering and am building skills in data analysis, laboratory techniques, and scientific problem-solving. Going to school in New Orleans has exposed me to many climate-related challenges, increasing my interest in environmental science.. Having experienced the beauty of these coastal environments firsthand growing up on Cape Cod, It’s especially meaningful to contribute to research that helps protect and restore them.
In the future, I am interested in working as a chemical engineer in a role focused on the environment and addressing climate change—potentially in areas such as renewable energy, environmental research, or developing more sustainable consumer products and manufacturing processes.
In my free time, I love being active and spending time outdoors. During the summer on Cape Cod, I enjoy running along the beach, biking on the Shining Sea bike path, playing pickle ball, and spending time on the water.
