Hi, I'm Sarah and I'm a junior environmental scientist by trade.

 

I'm currently gaining technical and practical experience in soil and water contamination and I'm passionate about being able to clean up contaminated sites.

​

My undergraduate education background is in biology and earth science and I have had the pleasure of conducting research regarding the declining sea ice level in the Arctic Ocean. 

​

Specifically, learning that microbes can clean up contaminated soils is what led me to pursue a postgraduate degree in environmental science.

 

It's alarming to know that our plastic waste is not degraded or reused appropriately and ends up in major water bodies.

 

I want to continue to raise awareness about single-use plastics and look for alternatives that are healthier for marine life and for our home planet.
