Graduate Students
Amy Fetters
Amy is working towards her M.S. in Biology at CSUB. She came to us after finishing her B.S. in Biology at Loyola University Chicago. Her research is focused on understanding how stormwater and seasonal patterns impact plastic pollution in freshwater habitats. Amy is passionate about freshwater conservation and is interested in participating in community outreach efforts to convey awareness of plastic pollution.
