Two new interns have joined the AAG staff this spring. The AAG would like to welcome Adeti and Geoffrey to the organization.

Adeti AfeAdeti Afe is a third-year student at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, studying Geography and Environmental Science while pursuing a GIScience certificate and a French minor. Her journey with Geography and Environmental Science began with a deep love for nature, which has grown into a commitment to sustainability and conservation. She developed an interest in science in the fourth grade, thanks to a great teacher named Mr. Omar, who was intentional in his teaching. She eventually fell in love with Environmental Science because she enjoys learning about how humans impact the environment, and how organisms interact with a variety of habitats. She attended a French immersion school for nine years, which ultimately inspired her to pursue a minor in the language. Adeti plans to graduate in May 2026. Her interests include ecology and urban planning. After graduating, she aims to attend graduate school and pursue a career in landscape architecture/design or ecology

Geoffrey Brown is a fourth-year Social and Environmental Geography student at Ohio State University. He’s minoring in Environmental Science with a concentration in Ecosystem Restoration. Although a ‘Buckeye’ at heart, he’s originally from Land O Lakes, Florida, where his interest in the environment started. He’s worked in various internships from Surveying and GIS to Urban Forestry. He’s currently researching water chemistry and habitat changes at an old quarry site that has been turned into an urban park in Columbus, Ohio. In his free time, he likes to go hiking, cook, and complain about the New England Patriots. He looks forward to graduating this fall and is excited to be at the AAG.
