Sarah Freeman
The Louis Berger Group
Sarah Freeman, a water resources engineer for the Louis Berger Group, has worked on projects around the world both as a student and in her professional capacity. She is the founder, president, and graduate advisor of the Tufts University chapter of Engineers without Borders, and the International Assessor for the "Union por la Ecología y el Medio Ambiente," Lima, Peru . Fluent in Spanish (as well as English), Ms. Freeman led intense field activities in a water provision project in rural Ecuador; was a field team leader for a sanitation provision and training in a rural community project in China; and collaborated with SEDAPAL, Greater Lima’s water utility, to develop a water resources planning model using Water Evaluation and Planning System (WEAP) for the city’s future development.
Ms. Freeman recently conducted a two year study that used global water data sets and GIS to document how the newly emerging concepts of hydroclimatic regimes and the landscape water availability depict a much richer picture of water availability in Africa than traditional studies indicated.
A graduate of Tufts University in Massachusetts, Ms. Freeman earned a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering and a master’s degree in water resources engineering.
