As the R.W. Kern Center Coordinator, Claire works across campus to integrate RWKC programming into the greater Hampshire community—organizing events, facilitating the Living Building Ambassador program, and supporting student and faculty grants. She serves as an on-campus resource for learning about RWKC operations, the Living Building Challenge, and sustainability in the built environment. She is also responsible for expanding the building’s educational outreach work with visitors of all ages.
Claire graduated from Hampshire College, where she studied Applied Environmental Science and Hydrologic Systems; a paper based on her Division III capstone research project, Protecting a Resource at Risk: Decentralized Greywater Treatment, Water Conservation, and Education at the R.W. Kern Center, is published in Water Environment Research.
