Angela King Curriculum Vitae Jan 2022
Biography:
Hello! My name is Angela King and I am a third-year marketing Ph.D. student at the University of California Irvine. My interest in research was fostered throughout my childhood. My parents were both anthropologists, with my father receiving his own Ph.D. in Anthropology. As a result, I developed a keen interest in understanding people and went to university to double major in Psychology and Business Administration.
In my second year of undergraduate studies, I reached out to two professors in the business school, Dr. Darcy Fudge Kamal and Dr. Cristina Nistor, expressing an interest in learning more about research. This led to a research project that I presented at Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences 2016 conference, Western Management of Academy 2017 conference, and the Chapman University Student Research Day. My interest in both business and psychology led me to choose to pursue experimental consumer behavior research.
I am currently in my third year, working on my dissertation proposal with my advisor, Dr. Loraine Lau-Gesk.
