While attaining my B.S. at UC Davis, I took courses that cultivated my interest in resource management. After graduation, I interned in Tena, Ecuador in the Department of Drainage and Irrigation. My internship experience inspired me to return to school.

I joined the Agricultural Economics Department at Purdue University in 2018. My master’s research work with Dr. Carson Reeling focuses on water quality research pertaining to pollution abatement decisions of the agricultural sector.
