Unrestricted donations allow us to remain agile, respond to emerging challenges, support priority research and teaching needs, and invest in the tools and talent. Help us ensure a healthier, more sustainable future, powered by knowledge and driven by purpose.
My long-term goal is to work as a marine research scientist focused on coral reef conservation and climate resilience. I envision contributing to global efforts to protect ocean ecosystems, conducting research, informing policy and working with coastal communities to develop sustainable practices. The Ocean Futures program at ASU, which emphasizes forward-thinking, interdisciplinary approaches and includes Indigenous and community-based perspectives, has been instrumental in shaping this vision."
