- Third year full time student at Humboldt State University majoring in Environmental Resource Engineering and minoring in Woman Studies.
Interests in Engineering
- Energy resources which allows the experience of creating efficient and sustainable forms of storing and transferring energy.
- Sustainable Activism: Divesting California’s institutions from fossil fuel.
- Working with underrepresented students who are interested in STEM and granting them resources that will allow them to succeed in their college and professional lives.
Experience in Engineering
- Summer (’13) internship with National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) in their Summer Engineering Experience for Kids (SEEK) as a mentor for underrepresented students (3rd-8th grade) in getting them involved with Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). With classroom management this program involved age-appropriate curriculum that engaged students in interactive exercises for the course of three weeks.
