Hello! I'm Katie, welcome to my website, I built it myself!
This website is still a work in progress, I am constantly adding new projects and fine tuning small elements here and there.
Please take a look around at some of my projects!
About Me
I’m a senior at UNC Chapel Hill majoring in Environmental Studies, with a minor in Data Science.
My academic and professional interests span agriculture, foodways, water pollution, and flooding. Much of my work explores the intersections of environmental justice, sustainability, and technology.
Currently I work with the Southern Environmental Law Center to locate proposed and existing data centers to support energy justice throughout the American South. I also work as a research assistant at the Digital Oceans Governance Lab at UNC Chapel Hill where I am working to transcribe UN Ocean Conference meetings in order to support understanding of the blue economy and current oceans governance initiatives.
I’m currently seeking opportunities in geospatial analysis, with a focus on building tools to support environmental justice projects. I’m also interested in the intersection of sustainable agriculture and GIS, and I’m eager to learn more about land management, cover cropping, and strategies to enhance soil health. I’m curious about the relationships between identity and food, textile production, and water systems.
