In one word: confident!

After taking AP Environmental Science in high school and finding the course both fascinating and thrilling - something Juliet notes that she hadn’t found thus far in her studies - she knew this was the field for her. It shocked her to learn how little leaders were doing to combat climate change, and she wanted to help bring solutions to fruition. This led her to study political science at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, where she is a rising junior.

Juliet is from Greenwich, Connecticut, where she is also carrying out her duties as CCL’s Summer Communications Intern. She is responsible for writing, editing, and publishing blog posts, as well as maintaining close connections with the communications team at CCL and working together to formulate new ideas. Throughout the summer, she hopes to learn more about the multiple layers of climate policy, become a better, more concise writer, and establish connections with like-minded individuals.

Juliet keeps busy with her two small puppies, Leo and Hazel. She also enjoys cooking, whether that means creating her own vegan recipes or trying new ones she sees online.

Juliet says that “as this battle can only be won by everyone doing their own part, I became interested in making small adjustments to my daily habits to make a larger impact.” She understands that every single person has a responsibility for our shared planet; if everyone does their part, a sustainable future is possible.
