Areas of Interest:
Poverty and world hunger, and how these two situations are affected by government policies and various groups of the population.
Thesis Topic:
A new food bank model emphasizing nutrition over "full bellies"
Why I am in the Program:
I am a very political person and understand full well the impact that government policies have on the poor and middle classes. I hope to be an applied sociologist who can effectively communicate findings which will be used in determination of legislation.
