Chi Nguyen

Chi Nguyen is a sophomore majoring in Environmental Science. She grew up in Hanoi, Vietnam, and experienced first-hand environmental issues such as air and water pollution which led to developing a passion for sustainability and solving climate change. The solution to climate change isn't just creating the best innovation, technology, or good science, but also raising people's awareness through communication and leadership. Through her education journey, she hopes to gain the skill sets of a researcher, as well as of a communicator. She is currently volunteering in Dr. Gerardo Lopez's lab, working on a project of ensuring environmental and food safety. Outside of the classroom, she is also the Vice President for the Environmental Science club. Through the Liverman Scholar's program, she hopes to grow and deepen her communication skills by learning from communication experts, and grow to become an effective scientific communicator.
