Jessica is a junior from Plano, TX, who is passionate about all things scientific research, environmental conservation, and volunteering! I have always loved the outdoors, whether that be from fishing trips with my dad to strolling along nature trails. This past summer, I became a water ambassador for my state, where I toured the Panhandle and spoke with local leaders about the importance of water conservation. As an EarthEcho Water Challenge Ambassador, I am most excited about combining science with outreach to improve water quality and monitoring in my community.
