My name is Charlotte Williams and I am an undergraduate student at the University of Maryland, College Park. I am studying Environmental Science and Technology with a concentration in Ecological Technology Design and expect to graduate in 2028. I am also a member of the Women’s Club Crew Team, where I’ve built a strong sense of teamwork and deepened my connection to the waterways I want to protect.

I am studying to become an environmental educator because I want to teach the next generation about their important role in the environment. My goal is to help students understand how their everyday actions impact the natural world and to give them opportunities to experience and care for the environment firsthand. I believe that learning in the field, whether on a river, in a forest, or within a community space, can inspire lasting stewardship in ways that classroom lessons alone cannot.

Through my academic studies, conservation work, and time spent rowing and volunteering on the Anacostia River, I have seen how meaningful it is to connect people with nature. I want to combine science, education, and hands-on experiences to guide future generations toward building a healthier and more sustainable relationship with the environment.
