She works as a Graduate Assistant for the Chesapeake Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve in Virginia with the Coastal Training Program, which includes community communications and supporting the York River and Small Coastal Basin Roundtable. Prior to starting at VIMS, she worked for nearly 3 years as the Community Science Manager for Dickinson College's Alliance for Aquatic Resource Monitoring (ALLARM), where she coordinated ALLARM's Stream Team program, working with partners and volunteers throughout Pennsylvania. She also coordinated ALLARM's participation in the Chesapeake Monitoring Cooperative, a dynamic team across the Chesapeake Bay states to support community-based data collection efforts and integrate data into a regional database.
