Environmental Engineering


Academic Background: I’m studying Environmental Engineering. I had always liked science in high school, and two of my teachers at the time told me to consider looking into environmental engineering as a possible career path. I’m really glad they did! I completed my first year at the Stamford campus, then changed campuses to Storrs so I could begin my major required courses. 

Research Interests: I am interested in sustainability and green water infrastructure.
Professional Experience: I worked as a Civil Engineering Intern for the Town of Greenwich Department of Public Works in the summer and winter of 2023/2024, and I worked as an Environmental, Health and Safety Intern for Medtronic in the summer of 2024.
Interests/Hobbies: I like to travel and play video games. My favorite games are Stardew Valley and Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild.
