I am a graduate student in sociology at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. My research interests include political sociology, demography, and the philosophy of social science. Current more specific interests include intergenerational wealth transfers (my MA thesis topic); neoliberalism and families; causal inference; mother-blaming; and war resisters, particularly in the context of the war on terror. |
Mom's Wrigley, dad's Field. (It's fun.)
