Danielle is interested in enabling transparent communication between different members of society, often with an environmental focus to increase access to natural resources. She is currently a graduate student in the Lyles School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University pursuing a PhD in Architectural Engineering with a focus in indoor air quality. She has had several opportunities to engage in education with undergraduates and community members, and has recently been honored to be able practice advising undergraduate service learning teams in EPICS after mentoring and TA'ing teams for several years. Having community-oriented discussions at Purdue, working with human-centered design in her own research, and mentoring student teams inspirited her drive to center community member and partner voices within academic discussions. She is excited to be able to learn from this Engagement in Practice conversation through discussions with partnering IIT institutions, EPICS leadership, and the students.
