My Background
I earned my M.S. in Environmental Health Science from the University of California, Berkeley School of Public Health, and I was part of the interdisciplinary Global Health and Environment program. I also earned my B.S. in Environmental Science and Natural Resources with a concentration in Toxicology from the University of Florida.

My Philosophy
I am a scientist. I am a strong advocate of good citations from the source. Believing blindly in the media is dangerous, it is all our responsibilities to ensure that information is accurate, just, and fair. I believe in promoting knowledge that is as close to the truth as possible, although my favorite quote from my favorite book is:

"A thing may happen and be a total lie; another thing may not happen and be truer than the truth."

— Tim O'Brien (The Things They Carried)
