Biography

I am a third-year double major in Wildlife and Conservation Biology and Journalism, planning to enroll into the Advanced Bachelor’s to Master’s Program for Conservation Biology and the MESM program to earn my Master’s degree.  Through URI, I have found my passion and future career, which is becoming an environmental reporter/documentarian. I am always busy with my classes, I’ve worked at the campus library for two years and I’m a staff reporter for the URI Five Cent Cigar. I am currently writing my own series in the newspaper about the Northwoods on our campus, and the benefits of having a natural environment next to our campus. These opportunities align with the DWELL fellowship in so many ways but this opportunity will support and motivate me to continue putting in the effort into something I love. I am so proud and honored to be a DWELL lab affiliate and fellow, and I can’t wait to see the new experiences I will gain.
