Catch Up on the Latest Trail News with the CT Trails Program

This blog will serve as a place where Connecticut Trails faculty, staff, and partners will discuss the things that are important to them, work-related and in the broader, global community. They are very excited to share with you the experiences, stories, and journeys of their team, and we are very excited to read them!

As part of the blog, the Connecticut Trails team will also be featuring a blog series known as My Environmental Story, which will highlight individuals and their reflections as an environmentalist. The aim of this blog series is to emphasize that one’s journey as an environmentalist changes as one learns more about the world around them. It is vital to understand that each person has a unique story that is reflective of their different backgrounds and experiences. We are thrilled to be able to read this series of blogs and we hope you enjoy reading them as well!

While you indulge in their blog posts, please understand that the opinions and words are not those of the University of Connecticut or the Connecticut Trails program as a whole, but of the authors only. If at any time you have questions, concerns, or just want to have a conversation about what is shared, the Connecticut Trails team encourages you to communicate with them through their email: trails@uconn.edu.

Currently, she is doing her Ph.D. in Agricultural and Resource Economics at The University of Connecticut. Eniola will be working together with the Connecticut Trail Census team as a Graduate Assistant on data gap estimation and trail user demand modeling. She hopes to use the count data to investigate the impact of the Trail use on development and health impacts. Apart from carrying out data analysis and conducting research, she considers herself “a people person,” and she loves to hang out with her friends to catch up and try out new food.
