What is your responsibility as a 2018 URI Energy Fellow (i.e. what team are you on/where are you working)?
For my fellowship jobs I worked at Green Development LLC, in North Kingstown, Rhode Island where we build solar and wind farms around the state. My primary responsibilities are determining future sites, helping with the permitting and application process with the towns and National Grid, and establishing potential new clients. Plus, I help by mitigating some of the other employees workload. My favorite part of the job is going to the actual wind or solar farms because you get to see all the effort you put in the office and know that you had part in helping construct this solar/wind farm.

What do you like to do in your free time? Are you involved in any other organizations or activities on campus?
In my free time I love to watch/play sports, go skiing, hiking, read a book, to learn about sustainability and to travel.
