Summary
Dynamic third-year Environmental Public Health major at the University of Washington, with coursework and applied experience in environmental risk assessment, occupational health and safety, microbiology, and community health education. Currently, I chair Risk Management, Membership Accountability, and Health & Wellness for a 107-member Delta Zeta sorority chapter, designing and delivering monthly trainings, enforcing national policy, and guiding sensitive mediations, while volunteering at Seattle Veterinary Outreach and formerly working as a veterinary assistant in direct patient care.
Excel at managing high-stakes responsibilities under pressure: competed full-time as an elite-level international mogul skier while maintaining a rigorous academic load, honing exceptional time management, resilience, and performance under intense physical and mental demands.
Eager to expand my knowledge and hands-on experience in environmental health, occupational safety, climate and health, or sustainability through a summer 2026 internship, where I can bring a disciplined work ethic, analytical rigor, and fresh energy while learning alongside accomplished professionals in the field.
