Jervon Sands

I am a recent graduate of the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University.

The last four years of liberal arts education have afforded me a wealth of knowledge and skills that continue to inform my personal and professional development. My commitment to academic excellence, using my talents to the fullest, truth, compassion, service of others and leadership led to my selection as the 2024 Commonwealth Caribbean Rhodes Scholar. I aim to understand the intricacies of climate change response for small island nations. I plan to engage with the government, non-profit and private sectors to address climate change impacts while promoting climate justice throughout my academic and professional careers.
