Summary

I am a soon-to-graduate UC Santa Cruz student. On top of which I love surfing, backpacking, climbing, and anything that takes me into nature. For that reason, I've always been passionate about protecting the environment. My goal is to build industry experience, go to law school, and work with policy that will protect the landscapes I've grown up in.

Thank you for your time and I hope to make your acquaintance,

Thor Harkin
