Fellow Story

Espinoza accepted to Environmental Fellows Program

Fellow(s): Demi Espinoza

Demi Espinoza has been accepted to the 2021 Environmental Fellows Program at the University of Michigan. The Environmental Fellows Program (EFP) at the University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability, in partnership with the Environmental Grantmakers Association, is a 12-week summer fellowship opportunity that seeks to diversify the environmental field by cultivating the career aspirations of master’s and doctoral students from historically underrepresented groups by connecting students to work opportunities in environmental nonprofits, grant makers, and government sectors. EFP is made up of future leaders and decision-makers in the rapidly changing fields of conservation, justice, equity, and philanthropy.

Demi graduated this Spring with a Master’s degree in Urban Sustainability and Applied Spatial Analysis for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) from Antioch University in Los Angeles, CA. Following the Environmental Fellows Program, she will go on to pursue a PhD in Geography at UC Davis.
