I am the treasurer for Be the Change this year. I have been on committee for the past four years, and have been president for three of those! It has been an absolute joy to be such an integral part of the society all this time, and I am so excited to support and continue in Be the Change!! My interest lies in environmental psychology, especially the psychological consequences of climate change, such as climate anxiety and ego grief and have worked with with the sustainability team on project around supporting staff and students with these emotions.
