Currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Fiction Writing. Through classes on craft, literary analysis, and writing workshops, I am developing and honing storytelling skills applicable in both the strategic communications world and publishing/editorial spheres. 

My undergraduate studies bridged the worlds of STEM and Humanities, providing me with a holistic understanding of how these two critical realms intersect. Within my Biology & Society degree, I concentrated in Environmental Health, taking courses such as Ethics and the Environment; Environmental Governance; Ecology and the Environment; Comparative Physiology; Nutrition, Health, and Society; and Sustainable Development.

 

I also earned a degree in Spanish, studying for a semester at the University of Sevilla in Spain.
