Summary
I've had the incredible opportunity to work with the University of Florida for nearly 5 years. During my time here, I've been involved in a rewarding project where I’ve helped implement over 60 gardens in schools across Orange County. It's been amazing to witness the children's excitement as they explore and learn about sustainability right in their own school. I'm truly passionate about making a positive impact on their education and fostering a love for the environment.
