I grew up by Chicago.
I went to a STEM magnet boarding school.
I now study Computer Science + Energy Science & Engineering at Stanford.
I live and breathe climate, and have spent the past third of my life working in it.
I was insanely shy at one point, but climate change compelled me to find my voice.
I passed a climate education bill and led strikes, amongst other things.
I've spoken at the United Nations Climate Summit, at the Parliament of the World's Religions, and on national press.
I represented Illinois at LCOY, and ended up organizing it.
I attended a women in tech conference at 13. Loved it so much I co-directed it at 16.
I'm currently most excited about energy tech and "Secretly Climate" startups.
I believe whatever you study or work in, you can use those tools to tackle the climate crisis. That's why I'm leading Stanford Climate Week.
For the past six months, I was the first hire at a clean energy and infrastructure startup, building out the product as a full-stack engineer.
I sat in the front seat with the founders—through pivots, a seed raise, and countless carpools from SF to Stanford.
Now, I'm developing an optimization framework for Stanford Research Computing to cut the energy footprint of their data center compute operations.
I turned 19 this summer. Follow along on my last year as a teenager.
