My name is Linh Le; I am a rising junior at The Ohio State University majoring in Environmental Science. I am interested in studying the association between historically redlined areas and heavy metal soil contamination. I am also interested in novel soil treatments with organic matter like biochar. This summer, I will be working in Dr. Cheng's Urban Soils lab. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, playing piano, reading, and doing jigsaw puzzles. At Ohio State, I am a member of the Evolution and Ecology club and a Research Assistant in the Soil Chemistry lab.
