Lily Sandler is a 3rd year EAS major. Her research interests lie in biogeochemistry. She does undergraduate research with Dr. Jennifer Glass on oceanic nitrogen cycling. She is working to develop a method to efficiently measure hydroxylamine, a reactive intermediate of the nitrogen cycle that react to produce nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas.

Lily is also a member of the Georgia Tech chapter of Sigma Gamma Epsilon, the Earth Science honor society. Lily also volunteers at ORGT (Outdoor Recreation Georgia Tech), where she is a Backpacking Instructor and helps to lead overnight backpacking trips for Georgia Tech students.
