"I chose to study Geography to explore human–environment interactions through geospatial techniques and to create data-driven solutions that can influence policy and support sustainability. My academic interests include the socioeconomic dimensions of climate change, environmental restoration, and disaster management. I was drawn to UNT by its strong academic community and research opportunities in socioeconomic sustainability, and I am looking forward to advancing my skills with geospatial tools while collaborating on sustainability projects. In my free time, I enjoy Zumba dance as a fun way to stay active."
