About
I am currently a senior completing a Bachelor of Science degree in Sustainability (Sustainable Energy, Materials and Technology track) and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology at Arizona State University. Through my almost two decades living in the Las Vegas valley, I have worked in the construction/environmental field inspecting sites for SWPPP compliance, ran a crew for environmental cleanup, have managed multi-million dollar inventories for food and beverage companies and have participated in archaeological ESAs in the Southern Nevada area. With my experience in all these different facets of industry, it gives me a more well-rounded approach to issues I may encounter.
