ABOUT ME
I grew up in Downers Grove, a suburb of Chicago, before attending the University of Oregon (Bachelor's of Science) followed by the University of California, Los Angeles (Masters & Ph.D.). In my free time, I like to explore the outdoors, hike, read, write, run, as well as play and coach basketball, tennis, baseball, and football.
