After two years of immersive studies in Sustainability Science at Lund University in Sweden, Cherry has come away with a deep understanding of present environmental problems and the interdisciplinary and holistic strategies necessary to tackle them and create future sustainable pathways. In particular, the program honed her research and analysis skills in formulating governance approaches for complex sustainability challenges. 

In addition, Cherry has a background in environmental justice work and community organizing.

She is currently applying her knowledge of social, economic, and environmental systems to current projects within the research and planning team at green engineering firm Integral Group.
