Erika has always been interested in understanding how the world works and building things. At Stanford, she studied Economics and researched topics in climate, energy, psychology, and technology, from how people respond to nature imagery to how AI can be used to measure carbon emissions.
Previously, Erika worked in economic consulting; however, she found herself drawn towards work that is more aligned with what she wants to see in the world.
You can likely find Erika outside, often somewhere between San Francisco and Tahoe, hiking, running, or skiing. She also enjoys painting and writing in her free time.
