Studying towards a Doctor of Philosophy
Country of origin: United States
My background in social-environmental science and consumer research has equipped me with an understanding of the demand for new technology intertwined with the crucial need for preservation of traditional practices.
I hold a Master of Environment and Society and a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Communication. I worked with CRI Plant and Food's consumer and stakeholder intelligence team on multiple projects involving novel agritech, organic consumption and sustainable protein consumption. I hold a keen interest in biospheric and human health.
Specifically, I am an advocate of preservation of the natural world and individual indigenous rights.
