Earth Day reflection from student-athlete Erin Tharp

Water polo player Erin Tharp shares, in part: “From a young age, I have had a deep connection to the Earth. Growing up, I spent many summers going to my grandparent's ranch in Northern California. These experiences formed my initial connection to Mother Nature and allowed me to appreciate her beauty as well as everything she offers us. By obtaining my master's in conservation and restoration science, I am dedicating my career to making the natural world a healthier place and doing my part to inspire the rest of the world to care and understand how their actions affect the environment.”
