Jasper Ainsworth

As a Ph.D. candidate in the Emmett Interdisciplinary Program in the Environment & Resources, my research focuses on shaping social and environmental outcomes in agro-industrial production systems in Brazil and the United States. I consider myself fortunate to have had many great teachers and mentors throughout my academic career. In working with my mentor at Foothill College and the broader PFP cohort, my goal with the PFP program is to become a better, more versatile instructor and student mentor while sharing my passions and interests in understanding and influencing human-environment interactions. As I prepare myself for faculty careers, I’m looking forward to the PFP program and learning more about effective pedagogical practices for teaching in diverse academic environments.
