Riley is a senior studying Environmental Science on the Sustainability in Development track. Her specific interests include marine resource issues, environmental economics and policy, and merging social and natural sciences. Riley spent her junior year abroad in Tanzania and New Zealand, focusing on Wildlife Conservation and Political Ecology in Tanzania and Earth Systems in New Zealand. At Brown, Riley is a Bonner Fellow through the Swearer Center, a Study Abroad Peer Advisor, and works in the Climate and Development Lab as a Research Assistant.

When not in class, Riley loves running, reading, cold-water plunging, and backpacking. She would love to chat about any questions related to humanities-focused tracks in ENVS, managing studying abroad while pursuing an Sc.B., finding awesome summer internships/jobs, or anything else!
