Environmental Justice Educator
“Professors in the environmental science department always supported student-driven inquiry.”
At Allegheny
Environmental Studies, English
My senior year, I took classes in both Environmental Education and Environmental Justice, which really inspired my career path. I found a passion for combining these two focus areas by teaching young people about environmental justice challenges and solutions. I felt encouraged to pursue my interests and was provided with tools and resources to do so! Working as a project assistant with Creek Connections provided me with more opportunities for mentorship and real-life experience teaching youth.
At Work
Educator Consultant, King County Parks
My work is focused on supporting the next generation of environmental thinkers and leaders. I work to create career pathways for folks who have historically been left out of decision-making related to the environment. I think this plays a critical role in creating a more just and sustainable future.
