I grew up in Rupert and Jerome, Idaho, and decided to come to the 麻豆视频入口在线观看 last fall. I joined the honors program and studied biological engineering with a focus in environmental aspects for the first year of my undergraduate. I spent my summer in Moscow, Russia on a cultural exchange and reconnected with my love for music. I am now studying piano performance, with a minor in mathematics, and I play the violin in the orchestra for fun. I am very fascinated with hydrology, and the processes behind water purification and the biological components of these systems, and have found that music and math are a great contrast to my scientific interests.

The future climate profile of the Western United States includes projections of more variable precipitation events, decreases in winter snowpack, and rising temperatures. Paired with projections of rising populations and higher demands for water, these changes will require the reinvention of policies and strategies for managing water to help ensure a sustainable future resource supply. My research explores the role of water institutions within Idaho鈥檚 Magic Valley in implementing more collaborative water management initiatives to substitute outdated practices and increase the adaptive capacity of the region.

As urban footprints expand to meet population growth estimates, resource conflicts appear inevitable. These conflicts have solutions, albeit ones that require complex, integrated perspectives. My past experience as a secondary English teacher paired with my studies as a graduate student in landscape architecture and urban planning allow me to meaningfully interact with the study area and its regional stakeholders. I am part of the scenario team which identifies and analyzes the study area鈥檚 past and present resource flows and conflicts to better understand future trajectories of the landscape. The rural-urban interface, including land allocation and resource reuse, is central to my master鈥檚 project research.
