Undergraduate Research Assistant

Hometown:

Tucson, Arizona

Major:

Political Science

Minor or focus area:

Environmental Studies

Research Interests:

I'm really focused on saving the world. I'm not yet sure how to go about it, but it involves sustainable agriculture, protecting biodiversity, environmental policy, and finding the missing link that gives a person understanding of their role as a part of nature instead of its dominator. I guess my research interests lie in how to effectively change human nature and policies to coexist with our environment.

Best thing about being at the ERI:

I couldn't ask for a better opportunity to advance my education and future career potential. Plus the people are pretty swell to work with.

Anything else:

"You can't cross a chasm in two small steps, it takes a giant leap." Life is full of fear, chance, and adventure. If you don't face one of these things daily then you may want to rethink what you're doing.
