About The Blog

My name is Tessa Clarizio. I am an Environmental Engineering (Energy-Water-Environment-Sustainability) Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I am passionate about the environment, and my research focuses on the intersection of air quality, climate change and public health; and am part of the Horowitz  Research Group (atmospheric chemistry-biochemistry-climate change-health). 

​

I started this blog with the objective of improving my science communication skills, particularly in the area of air quality. Please feel free to provide feedback or suggestions on topics you would like to learn about. I hope you find my blog posts interesting and informative!
