Meet Unity College Student Ambassador Sarah

098e

Sarah recently took the Water and Soil Resource Management course at Unity College with Professor Erik Larson.

"Before enrolling with Unity, I had just completed a Master’s degree in Biology with Miami University’s Advanced Inquiry Program, while working for the University of Washington’s Department of Medical Oncology.

I chose Unity because I needed a program that emphasized applied science and practical skill-building, offered in a flexible manner that would allow me to maintain my job.

My academic and professional background is pretty eclectic, from performing professionally in ballet, theater, and modern dance to zoological horticulture. My focus in this program is ensuring that I have a strong foundation in, and understanding of, the scientific basis for management actions that I will be involved with in future professional contexts.

First of all, Erik is an outstanding instructor! He communicates clearly, is knowledgeable in the subject matter, and is consistently engaged with the class; all of which made the overall experience very positive. The course project was also a great opportunity to practice gathering and documenting information for technical reports such as Environmental Impact Statements.

In the short-term, I hope to continue building my vocational skills by finding employment in conservation horticulture. Eventually, I hope to participate in researching and implementing permaculture, regenerative landscaping, and “rewilding”/habitat restoration projects."
