About Madison
Madison is a PhD student in the Biological and Agricultural Engineering Department, where she studies the sources, transport, and mitigation of plastic pollution in urban freshwater systems. Before starting her PhD, Madison earned her bachelor’s degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from George Washington University and a Master of Science in Public Health in Environmental Science and Engineering from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She has worked across various roles in water resources engineering, federal science policy, and community-based environmental programs, including managing a citizen science initiative focused on litter and debris in waterways. As a Global One Health Fellow, Madison hopes to advance our understanding of plastic as an emerging contaminant and its impacts on human, animal, and ecosystem health.
