Chemistry Major

General Accountability Office

This summer I worked at the Government Accountability Office (GAO) in its Center for Science, Technology, and Engineering. In particular, I focused on Technology Assessments, a relative recent function of the GAO designed to examine the impacts, potential benefits, disadvantages, obstacles, and future development of technologies. Specifically, I contributed to a report assessing the use of fresh water in the energy sector and helped prepare for an upcoming Comptroller General Forum.
