Adrianna Celtruda

Research Technician (current)

Field & Lab Tech (2024-2025), Undergraduate Summer Intern (2024)

Adrianna Celtruda is a research technician in the Agroecology Lab at the University of Maryland. She joined the lab as an intern in the summer of 2024 and has assisted a variety of research projects ever since. Currently, she contributes to the Options for Adapting to Rising Seas (OARS) project through website development, outreach, and geospatial research.

Her passion for agriculture began during her undergraduate studies, when she managed her university’s community garden, which practiced organic and permaculture techniques. Since graduating from George Washington University in Fall 2024 with a B.S. in Environmental and Sustainability Science and a minor in Geographic Information Systems, she has only grown more passionate about agriculture and coastal ecosystems.

Adrianna is currently pursuing a graduate degree in Geographic Information Science from the University of Maryland. She hopes to use these technical skills to support the resilience of coastal agricultural systems and the communities that depend on them.
