About Me

I have a B.S. in Engineering: Systems from a small, private engineering college.

I then spent a year working for a university on the West Coast as a marine technician in the Oceanography Department. As a result, I spent a lot of time on ships and used this blog to detail my experiences.

I am now in a PhD program in Engineering and Public Policy at a university on the East Coast. My research focuses on consumer decision-making related to energy usage.

I am interested in the intersections of feminism, philosophy, and engineering. This blog began as a record of my studies as I completed a capstone project in the field of social philosophy.

If you are new to this blog, I recommend starting with these entries:

• Kaylee Frye, an Incomplete Role Model
• The Only Girl Here: Women and the Trades
• I Hate Making Mistakes Because They Make Me Doubt Myself
