What attracted you to do your degree at Mason? 

The renowned Department of Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Earth Sciences as well as the newly formed MS Climate Science program is what attracted me to complete my degree at Mason. 

What have you been doing since you graduated from Mason? Where are you working now? 

Since 2022 I have been working as the Communications Manager for the Virginia Climate Center at George Mason University 

What were your favorite experiences while studying at Mason? 

My favorite experience while studying at Mason was organizing a chapter of a multi-institutional group known as “The Climate Consensus”. It brought our climate students and faculty together under the shared desire to improve our communication about climate change with the public.
