About
I am a people and nature-oriented individual who has always enjoyed helping people in any way that I can. My passion to help others started by supporting individuals in their daily routines to finding jobs. Eventually, my passion to help others would lead to teaching students about the principles of physical science and sustainability. <br> My passion for helpings others and concern over our future motivates me to make the world a better place for everyone. As an undergraduate student, I became more aware of the state of our world as well as developed a desire to continue my education. While living in Sweden, I found a master’s program in sustainable development and environmental science, and I knew this would be my path to help people on a broader scale. Now, I am continuing that pursuit as a Ph.D. candidate in Sustainability at the University of South Dakota.
