ABOUT ME

I'm a grad student in Sociology living in NYC. My academic interests are in immigration, particularly the differences between Europe and the US. I'm fascinated by the population changes that Europe is experiencing now and look forward to traveling and meeting people who are part of this shift.

My non-academic pursuits include knitting, exploring (especially on my bike) big cities and small towns, and going to the beach in any kind of weather. I have a thing for the ocean.
