Air Quality Scientist | Community Driven Solutions | Policy Action
My Background
I am a researcher and scholar specializing in environmental justice, air quality monitoring, and data-driven policy analysis. Currently pursuing a Ph.D., at the University of California, Merced I focus on leveraging low-cost sensor networks and advanced statistical modeling to assess air pollution disparities, particularly in underserved communities. My work integrates environmental science, spatial analysis, and public policy to drive actionable insights for equitable environmental governance.
Beyond academia, I am passionate about science communication and policy engagement. I have participated in policy fellowships and legislative research, working to bridge the gap between scientific research and decision-making.
