Get to Know Me Further
I’m a Delaware native whose love for the environment began during childhood visits to my grandparents’ home near Deep Creek Lake, Maryland. Exploring forests and spending time on the lake created a lifelong connection to the land and water. Outside of work, you’ll often find me going on long runs with friends or traveling to new places to tackle half marathons, all while sampling local foods and immersing myself in different cultures. I also enjoy playing guitar, tending to my pollinator garden, and hiking trails whenever I get the chance.
