Biography

Christine is a senior at Brown University studying Environmental Science on the Climate and Energy track. She is particularly interested in how science, law, and policy intersect to address environmental challenges, and this perspective has guided both her coursework and her real-world experiences. During Fall 2024, Christine interned at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy through the Brown in Washington Program, which gave her firsthand experience with science policy at the federal level. She’s also a student reporter for Possibly, a weekly podcast that covers environmental solutions. From experiences like these, she can offer insight into study away opportunities, as well as how to take full advantage of Brown’s career and networking resources. 

Christine would love to give students advice, share her journey, and offer resources in support of their journey at Brown. She believes her wide variety of experiences might help students see the broad possibilities ahead of them as an ENVS concentrator. She knows how hard it is to navigate the first few years of college, and wants to help make it as joyful of an experience as possible! Outside of her academics, Christine enjoys photography, music, and cooking. Feel free to contact her with any questions about studying away, choosing courses, applying to internships, or anything ENVS related!
