Curriculum Vitae
I am an undergraduate researcher specializing in Geography and Environmental Resources with a minor in Computer Science. My interdisciplinary research focus spans GIS, remote sensing, and landscape ecology, with additional field experience in fire ecology and ecocultural restoration through volunteer work and community partnerships. I aim to contribute to landscape-level conservation and open science initiatives through data-driven methods with community-engaged research.
