"As a Dominican-American who grew up in the South Bronx and saw environmental injustice plague my community and my family, I knew I wanted to fight for climate justice. With the Climate Scholars, I developed vital skills in organizing, advocacy, communication, and writing that gave me a step forward in my environmental career."
