  • P-GraSC

I am a concurrent master’s student in the Evans School of Public Policy & Governance and the Department of Environmental & Occupational Health Sciences. My research and policy interests include wildfire smoke, indoor air quality, food system sustainability and safety, as well as human perceptions, behaviors, and decision-making. Currently, I am studying the usability, accuracy, and precision of low-cost air sensors for indoor use at the household and citizen science levels. I’m also working on a project focused on reviewing food waste policies and guidance across all 50 U.S. states. I am a member of the PCC Graduate Student Steering Committee (P-GraSC) and am pursuing the Graduate Certificate in Climate Science (GCeCS).
