My name is Abigail Samantha Balais, and I am a 4th year studying environmental studies and sociology. I am passionate about energy equity and the protection of marginalized communities that fall victim to ecological apartheid and environmental racism. Outside my studies, I love to paint, sing, and stay active. I am super excited to begin my position and can’t wait to utilize new skills to further my academic and professional career.
