I grew up in Sammamish, Washington, a suburb of Seattle. After graduating from Skyline High School in 2008, I decided to attend Linfield, a small liberal arts college in Oregon, to continue my education. I graduated from Linfield in 2012 with a B.S. in Sociology and a B.S. in Mathematics. Upon graduation, and after spending all of my life in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, I left to pursue my PhD in sociology with a focus on social networks at the University of California, Irvine. While at UCI, I have earned an M.A. in Sociology and an M.S. in Statistics. I have been enjoying all that Southern California has to offer, and I am excited to see where I end up next after earning my PhD.
