I was born in a small beachside town in South Florida called Lighthouse Point.  I was always exposed to Coastal ecosystems and told just how fragile they are. I want to do everything I can to try to mitigate society’s impact on these ecosystems and many others, as well as help people who may be unable to make every small change they can. This is why I am studying Physics and Economics at the University of Florida and why I and Juan Casas started the Empowered Prosthetics group. As the president of EP, I will see this through until our prosthetics enable everyone to make the change they wish to see in the world.
