DEI & Outreach
I am dedicated to fostering justice, equity, diversity, inclusivity, and accessibility (JEDIA) within the geosciences, believing that a wide range of perspectives and backgrounds strengthens our field.
By promoting equitable opportunities and creating inclusive environments, I aim to ensure that everyone—regardless of their identity—can contribute meaningfully to scientific discovery and innovation.
