  • SGB-SOOS Liaison

  • Political Science and Environmental Studies Major

I am a junior majoring in political science and environmental studies. I have been apart of SGB and sustainability since my first-year!! My first year I sat on the Community and Government Relations Committee, and my sophomore year I sat on the single-use plastics taskforce. I also have been very involved in sustainability since my first-year through my prior role as an EcoRep!!

In this role, I hope to make campus more sustainable by reducing Pitt's dependence on plastics by utilizing the single-use plastics taskforce. I hope to achieve this by creating a collaborative space to discuss innovative ways to progress campus sustainability.
