Water Experience

As a PhD student at the University of Alberta researching drought impacts on tropical forests, my work intersects water availability, sustainability, and resilience in vulnerable ecosystems. My expertise as an environmental consultant and researcher in hydrology and environmental science has allowed me to explore water resource management and its role in mitigating climate change impacts. Through STEM volunteering, I advocate for inclusive opportunities, empowering women in water research and management. By addressing gender disparities in STEM and championing equitable access to water education and resources, I aim to inspire diverse voices to tackle global water challenges collaboratively.
