I was born in Alaska, grew up in Hawaii, finished high school in Oregon, and attend college in Utah. Growing up in states that emphasize outdoor recreation and environmental tourism helped me develop a passion for nature and the outdoors. On campus, you might see me helping out with the U's Beekeeping Association. Off campus, I spend my time hiking and skiing in Utah's wilderness.
I'm currently a student at the University of Utah, where I study Communications and Political Science. I've finished a Government Relations internship at the Natural History Museum of Utah, as well as a Digital Marketing Internship at Love Communications. This Spring semester, I'm working on a research project involving environmental media rhetoric as part of my undergraduate thesis for the U's Honors College.
