What was your experience like in the program and how has your degree helped your career?

My career path is in no small part a result of the questions and reflections that arose, and were clarified, as part of my Humanities education. Pretty much every day, I build on the lessons of that education by engaging in politics and public service oriented around environmental problems. I am deeply thankful to the amazing team at the College of Humanities for making me a better thinker, writer and communicator, and I draw on these skills in nearly every facet of my work, from contextualizing scientific findings, to using rhetoric and argumentation to make the case for good public policy.
