<p>I am currently in graduate school, working towards obtaining a master’s degree in Climate Science and Solutions. The fields of conservation and environmental science are typically not dominated by Latinos, but as a child of two immigrants from South America, who instilled in me a passion for the outdoors, I grew to have a longing to protect and conserve the natural world. . I am interested in this opportunity because I am very passionate about the protection of our national parks and the flora and fauna that it consists of. This opportunity will undoubtedly support my professional goal of building my career as an environmental scientist with an emphasize on climate change mitigation and adaptation.</p>
