My Laidlaw experience focuses on reframing the tourism industry to center the environment. In my first year, I developed a map of NYC's ecotourism, focused on environmental justice, circularity, and emissions reduction. In my second year in Santiago, Chile, I have collaborated with FEDETUR, the federation of tourism enterprises of Chile, to develop materials for tourism businesses to reduce their carbon footprint.
G'day!!
I'm a third year student at Columbia University in New York, but I live between Washington DC and Melbourne, Australia. I am planning to double major in history and politics and I am a massive history/classics nerd!
My research is looking at the history of imperialism in the U.S. and Australia in the 19th and 20th centuries through literature. I want to look into how these two countries adopted British imperialist practices into their own forms of governance.
