Summary
During my time at UC Berkeley from 2019 to 2023, I majored in Berkeley's unique Interdisciplinary Studies Field (ISF), which allowed me to merge various academic perspectives and tackle complex social and environmental issues. My thesis, “Systemic Water Inequality in the Age of Globalization,” examines how race and water contamination intersect across the Mexico-California border. I delve into the role globalization plays in deepening systemic inequalities, highlighting how marginalized communities are disproportionately affected by these environmental challenges. This research was an opportunity to combine my passions for environmental justice, social equity, and global issues, shedding light on the disparities in water access and quality.
Below is my full thesis in a PDF.
