Candidacy!

Just a quick update - a week ago today I successfully passed my dissertation proposal defense. And since I already passed my comprehensive exams in the fall, I am officially a Ph.D. candidate! It was a really long year, but being on the other side of the exams and my proposal is an amazing feeling. After a week of finishing up some end-of-year work (including launching my CHI project!), I'm now gearing up for this year's field work. I will be in Belize during June, where I will be supervising an undergraduate field school. 

Stick around to see updates from this season in July. In the meantime, you can read about last season's work here!
