Goals and interests

Career goal

I am very interested in the environment, and hope to do a "cluster" of environmental studies within the public policy major.

Graduate school interests

I would be interested to do a Master's in Environmental Studies.

Outside the classroom

Sports of any kind, especially track and field and cross-country running. I played soccer for ten years, as well as hockey (on girls' and boys' teams); downhill and cross-country skiing. I also danced competitively (ballet and jazz) for twelve years. I have travelled a lot through the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia, and also visited South America, China and the Caribbean.
