What are you studying?

I’m majoring in Environmental Science, with a minor in GIS.

What is a fun fact about you?

I took math for six years in high school, every semester.

Why WSU?

My high school’s principal received his Ph.D. as a Cougar and, as soon as I visited the campus, I could not help myself.

What is special about being a CAHNRS Coug?

Diversity, community, networking, and most importantly the people within CAHNRS are special to me. They make me feel home.

Where do you want to be (professionally or personally) 10 years after you graduate?

I am planning on going back to developing countries around the world and helping provide healthy drinking water to communities in need.

Favorite class you have taken within CAHNRS so far? Why?

Environmental Science 101 is one of my favorite classes so far. The class gave me a wide range of information about my major and options I can choose. The instructor has been my favorite instructor so far.

What other extracurricular activities have you been involved in?

Environmental Science Club, ESA.

Favorite Ferdinand’s flavor of ice cream?
