Bio
As the Outreach Intern, I work to spread awareness and highlight sustainability efforts at SDSU. My responsibilities include creating the monthly newsletter, updating the Sustainable SDSU website, organizing events, and running our social media platforms. I hope to combine my passion for sustainability and advertising/marketing to highlight the importance of protecting our environment and promoting sustainable change.
Sustainability Origin Story: Sustainability has always been a very important factor in my life. My family always made it a point to practice sustainable efforts and make sure we spend time in nature to truly appreciate it. Being heavily involved in my environmental club in high school and Green Love at SDSU, has helped me show my passion for sustainability. An experience I will never forget is when I tried to help stop a proposed housing plan which would destroy an entire ecosystem in my hometown. This was an eye opening experience and I try to advocate for sustainability as much as I can.
Education
4th year Journalism and Advertising (JMS) major with Management Information Systems (MIS) minor.
