What is your favorite place on the Tufts campus and why? 

​The Sink Cafe, previously known as The Rez, is by far the best place to be! As a barista there I've made so many friends and met so many people in that cute little homey space. I love swinging by to grab a coffee, and often stick around for much longer, chatting and catching up with everyone behind the counter. 

What environmental issue are you most passionate about and why?

I'm really interested in the intersections between Public Health and the Environment, particularly as that relates to minority communities and the ongoing fight for true, sustainable Environmental Justice. 

What is your favorite memory from your time as an ENVS student at Tufts? 

​Taking Professor Julian Agyeman's Developing Sustainable Communities Class in the Spring of 2020. That class changed the game!
