What are your academic/technical/or energy justice interests?
I am pursuing a degree in Data Science. I’ve been interested in taking data science a step further by using it as a system to identify and address technology gaps in our society, as well as where our prejudices come from. Allocating time and money to fields such as earth sciences, social sciences, and others can promote more fair cultural understanding and transparency. By embracing these tools and disciplines amidst the rapid surge of technological advancements, we can drive positive change to empower individuals and communities. While paving the way for a future that is more informed, inclusive, and prosperous for all. I hope to use my gain knowledge and apply it to energy justice projects.
