Work Highlight:

I helped research community garden policy in the Buffalo-Niagara Falls through conducting interviews with local gardeners, as well as assisting future healthy Corner Store initiatives and community gardens in the Niagara Falls area through mapping food access spaces and empty lots in the area.

Summer Takeaway:

I've learned a lot about city government, and local public policy, as well as coalition building and the history of labor moments, all of which are things I would love to continue to learn about.

Career Path: 

Public service in either public policy or legislative work.

Favorite Memory: 

For me, I really enjoyed interviewing local community gardeners, and hearing about how their gardens positively affected their neighborhoods, and also the alumni zooms.
