Challenge: Provide Access to Clean Water
Bio for Spotlight: As a GCS Scholar, I have been focusing the majority of my work on engineering in the developing world. Through other organizations, I have been involved on designing multiple water treatment systems along with other projects that address the lack of infrastructure in the Global South. In 2015, I spent almost eight months living in Haiti and working as a project engineer for Clemson Engineers for Developing Countries (CEDC).
