Water Experience

I am currently a masters graduate student that is working in the field of groundwater remediation within a Canadian context. On the side, I volunteer with NGOs and clubs on and off campus that promote, advocate and focus on the SDG goals, women in STEAM, and engineering an equitable future. I plan on entering the policy and water governance field as well. Additionally, I have hosted and led educational workshops and seminars on the topics mentioned above.
