My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...

Go to Waffle House for a late-night snack. Don't knock it until you've tried the hashbrowns!

What has been your most impactful class?

Voting, Elections & Public Opinion (POLS 385) with Professor Fraga absolutely transformed the way I thought about elections. Our core investigation centered around why some social groups are more likely to politically participate than others. It completely uprooted everything I thought I knew about barriers to voting, the extent to which campaigns matter, and how much power an individual really has in our democracy.

What is your favorite Emory tradition?

You can catch me every week at the farmer's market. What's better than local businesses that take Dooley?

On a random day, you're most likely to find me….

People-watching, studying, and/or napping in a study pod at the student center.

I'm passionate about...
