Biography

The MPhil in Environmental Policy I received while on the Gates Fellowship changed the course of my life. Not only was it an incredible educational and cultural experience, it reawakened in me a deep passion for environmental protection, sustainability, and, most importantly, realistic strategies to strive towards these ideals. My life is now dedicated to finding and implementing feasible strategies for implementing environmental technology, especially carbon capture and storage. My goal is to ensure that during this transition period where renewable energy supplies are being phased in, the unavoidable use of fossil fuels is pursued in a much more environmentally-conscious way. In short, I want to clean up the energy industry – from the inside out.
