Sofia was born and raised in Madrid, Spain and moved to Vermont a couple of years ago. She is a senior at the University of Vermont studying wildlife conservation, with a focus on both science and policy and a minor in chemistry. She has always had a love for the outdoors and has made sure to have a hobby for every season of the year, whether it’s hiking, kayaking or skiing. Anything to get her out of the house and moving around. Sofia is excited to gain experience on how non-profit policy works alongside the legislature and the roles the science and education branch have within that.
