About me

Gender Female
Industry Environment
Occupation Student/Intern
Location Appleton, Wisconsin
Introduction I am a graduating senior at Lawrence University, majoring in Biology and Environmental Science. I have recently applied to graduate programs in sustainable development and environmental management. After school, I want to work with communities, organizations or institutions to help them make the transition to environmentally-friendly policies and practices, so that we all can live in a sustainable world. Until then, I'll just have to write about my adventures here. Currently, I have an Environmental Internship at Goodwill Industries of North Central Wisconsin (NCW), working as part of their "Protect the Planet" 2009 action plan on efforts to reduce the amount our organization contributes to the landfill by finding other outlets for unsalable donations.
