About Me

I am a PhD Candidate at Penn State University, pursuing a Dual PhD in Statistics and Social Data Analytics. I completed my BS in Statistics and BA in Economics at Virginia Tech.

As a triplet from the small town of Morrow, Ohio, I grew up spending lots of time outside- swimming, kayaking, biking, and hiking. I greatly enjoy these activities now, as well as weaving and hiking with my dog.

Throughout my academic, professional, and extracurricular activities, I have systematically chosen positions and experiences that will allow me to develop the analytical skills, political awareness, and theoretical grounding to inform public policy.
