About
I graduated from Allan Hancock College with an Associate’s degree in physics and am pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Nuclear Engineering at U.C. Berkeley. There is an increasing need for clean, reliable, sustainable energy, and it is my firm belief that the solution lies in nuclear energy. We’ve barely scratched the surface of what the field of nuclear science has to offer, and I’m eager to delve deeper.
Growing up in my family’s beekeeping business on the Central Coast taught me hard work, perseverance, and teamwork, as well as reinforced the importance of environmental consciousness. I worked as a tutor at Allan Hancock College, which improved my communication and leadership skills, and made me realize how much I enjoy teaching. I’m always open to new experiences and opportunities to grow, and I look forward to what the future holds.
