I am a student at William and Mary studying biology and data science, with experience in conservation research. Climate science is my passion, and I am currently conducting research related to African women in conservation, with the goal of identifying platforms that connect these leaders. I joined Wildhub to find contacts that would be willing to participate in this research, and to understand more about the platform.
I am a student at the College of William and Mary where I am majoring in Government and Environmental Science on the Pre-Law track. Currently I am completing research with the Institute for Integrative Conservation at my school.

I joined the platform partly to get in touch with African women who would be interested in offering their insight on their experiences.
