Jaydee is a 4th year PhD candidate from the department of Earth and Environmental Science in the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS). Her research focuses on a sub-category of microplastics known as tire- and road-wear particles. Currently, she studies these particles in road dust from the streets of Philadelphia and will follow the transport of the particles via stormwater runoff into the Schuylkill River. She is deeply committed to research that studies anthropogenic pollution through geochemistry and mineralogy. Through her department, she has been a TA for classes like Intro to Environmental Science and Intro to Geology. She looks forward to engaging with graduate students across Penn and is particularly interested in creating engaging and safe atmospheres for students.
