On a personal note

In high school, I was able to partner with Dickinson College to monitor the water quality of the Conewago Creek by testing for the effects of urban and agricultural runoff. This early exposure to the engineering field encouraged me to pursue a degree in Environmental Engineering at Penn State. Later in college, I interned with the Conewago Creek Initiative, where I partnered with local farmers to improve water quality in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. I enjoyed the hands-on nature of my projects and the satisfaction of being able to help the farmers and community on the ground level.

I am so excited to be a part of the WSC team and to have the opportunity to work with our clients to find innovative solutions for their water, wastewater, and recycled water challenges.

Outside of work, I love doing anything active including camping, biking, hiking, traveling or just spending time outdoors.
