CURRENT MISSION sustainable urban water management research! ABOUT ME Curious, creative, adventurous, independent, I seek sparkles in life, believe in being proactive, don't have time for people who complain (either do something to improve your situation, or just deal with it silently), am an eternal optimist. Currently on a research travel grant from my grad department (my reward for graduating this year!) to study more sustainable ways that cities worldwide can begin to manage their water, in terms of stormwater, wastewater, and drinking water systems. I like synergies, in which you get win-win situations - e.g. using plants to remove excess nutrients from urban waterways. PHILOSOPHY work hard and play hard, and have fun at both!
