Jess Clark began her professional career in adult education serving overburdened communities – immigrants, refugees, formerly incarcerated people, and unhoused community members, supporting their educational path through counseling, resources, and wrap-around services. Currently she is a Project Monitor with the US Department of Energy, with a project portfolio and cross-cutting activities including air quality, siting, social acceptability, workforce development and STEM education. She is looking forward to this fellowship enriching her understanding of key climate concerns, environmental health impacts, green infrastructure, funding/policy and risk reduction strategies.
