BIO


Originally from Cincinnati Ohio came to Florida State to study environmental science and to develop myself as a person and professionally. I have been able to learn from our many amazing professors in the EOAS department as I work towards my major and future plans of helping our natural world threw research and advocacy. Outside of the classroom you can find me on the courts and fields of our many FSU sports team as apart of our Cheer team, and occasionally enjoying the Florida weather in any way possible.

Abstract


As the world continues to develop and change, we must learn to adapt and grow from these changes. Fossil fuels are one of those relics. Hydrogen energy has the potential to change the world with its possibilities. Through the processes of innovation and time, countries have started to latch onto this green energy through different economic benefits. Whether it be through grants or simply tax cuts, the spark of a new energy has surfaced. One that is clean and environmentally sound for the future with proper support. Through my research I have been able to breakdown economic impacts and effects that hydrogen energy will have on the future economy and why hydrogen should be the green energy source of the future.
