Ph.D. Candidate
M.A., Sociology, Baylor Univ., 2008
B.A., Psychology, Our Lady of the Lake University, 2006
My research interests are broad. Among them are the psychology of groups and culture, gender, advancing technology's effect on individuals and society and more.
Baylor's Applied Sociology program offers me broad research opportunities and hands-on experience conducting client research. Baylor graduate students work closely with accessible faculty, with lots of opportunity
to present and publish their work. Finally, I came to Baylor because the atmosphere allows for the expression of faith and the pursuit of science, acknowledging that the two not only coexist, but inform each other in the
context of peoples' lives.
