Bio

Year at UC Davis:  1st (Graduate Program)

Major:  Geography

Why I chose to serve on COSAF:  I chose to serve on COSAF because I am a first-generation student who believes we should gain all we can through our educations, no matter the obstacles, and help others do the same. Many of us need every cent of our education to count, and I am honored to be able to advocate for the transparency and ethical use of student fees on behalf of Graduate students.

Extra-curricular hobbies/ interests/ activities: I'm proudly obsessed with my rescue pup, Winter. I love to travel when able and have worked in Kenya and Madagascar studying animal behavior and conservation. I am passionate about helping others understand how non-human animals navigate and experience the world, and I hope to continue doing so through research on animal behavior and cognition. I am from New York and love coffee, hiking, fantasy novels, and cold, snowy weather.
