Welcome!
I am a PhD student and Graduate Research Assistant in the Plant and Environmental Science program at Clemson University.
I am a PhD student and Graduate Research Assistant in the Plant and Environmental Science program at Clemson University.
I studied in the Judd aquatics lab for four years, starting during my undergraduate degree. My M.S. thesis research focused on quantifying the non-point sources of microplastics in the Huron River, as well as how microplastics and other environmental pollutants impact filter feeding organisms. Currently, I am studying coastal water quality at Clemson University with Dr. Stefanie Whitmire. Read more about my current research here!
I have a strong commitment to achieving equity and promoting the inclusion of people of all backgrounds. I believe that diversity, especially in STEM, makes us stronger. I aim to create a comfortable and safe environment in my classroom and for the groups I am involved in, as well as help my students and peers with achieving their professional goals.
I worked as a graduate teaching assistant for an introductory biology course (BIO 111) at EMU for two years. Additionally, I mentored multiple undergraduate and high school students. I have a strong passion for mentoring and teaching students, and would like to become a professor after attaining my PhD.
I am passionate about working with communities to not only share my work, but also to learn about community concerns to focus research efforts. During the summer of 2024, I took part in the SC Sea Grant Consortium Marine Debris Educator Workshop, as well as a Roundtable Plastics Discussion with other junior scientists. As a scientist, I feel that it is our job to not only conduct meaningful research, but also to share it with the public.
