Clarissa is a 2022 alumnus of George Mason University with a BS in Psychology and a minor in Film and Media Studies. Clarissa has a passion for improving the quality of life for others which she aims to do by working in the field of Psychology. However, this passion has also recently led her to take an interest in social issues, particularly relating to mental and physical health inequality. Upon learning of the mission of the Consortium to inform and educate policymakers and the public about the effects that climate has on physical and mental health, Clarissa was excited to learn more and contribute her skills to help accomplish this mission. Therefore, Clarissa primarily serves as an assistant for the Climate & Health Equity Fellowship program in digital communication and multimedia creation and also has assisted with other planning and coordinating in preparation for the Consortium’s Annual Meetings.
