Brief Biography
I am the Graduate Assistant for the Research Exploration Academy and a PhD student in Anthropology. I am currently engaged in ethnographic research for my dissertation, examining how National Guard soldiers and their families negotiate competing civilian and military obligations and the effects this has on their identity construction.

I’m originally from a suburb of Chicago, and I did my undergraduate work in anthropology at Miami University in Ohio before coming to Buffalo.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great year in the Academies. Feel free to contact me anytime with questions!

Why do you like to frequent the Academies Office in 17 Norton?

The plant, located about 4 1/2 miles downstream from Niagara Falls, has two main facilities: the Robert Moses Niagara Power Plant and the Lewiston Pump-Generating Plant.
