What inspired your interest in the environment and/or community? I have always been drawn to plants their resilience, adaptability, and the ways they shape ecosystems. Over time, my curiosity grew into a passion for understanding how molecular approaches can answer larger environmental questions. By studying plants at genetic and cellular levels, scientists can uncover insights into how they respond to stress, adapt to changing conditions, and contribute to sustainable solutions.

My experiences in research and travel have also shown me that caring for the environment is deeply connected to caring for communities, which leads me to pursue work that bridges science with stewardship.
