Hello! am currently a senior at UMBC studying Chemical Engineering, on the Environmental Engineering and Sustainability Track.
Through the Grand Challenges Program, I will have had the opportunity to engage in a number of experiences that will help me grow and prepare me to work on my grand challenge. I hope you’ll enjoy reading about my experience throughout this journey.

Imagine a world of nine billion people with clean water, nutritious food, affordable housing, personalized education, top-tier medical care, and nonpolluting energy. Building this better world is humanity’s grandest challenge.
