on june 7th, 2002, i graduated from mit with a bachelor's degree in brain & cognitive science. (i even got published: check it out.) but that is a pretty flat rendition of what i have done and can do. the import in that statement comes from my experiences in my four years as an undergrad; though they are a bit complex to describe here, browsing around may give you some idea. i've done some web & graphic design for gainful employment. like what you see? check out my portfolio. after graduating, i worked for two years as an admissions counselor for the mit office of admissions, which was an amazing learning experience, and which offered an interesting laboratory for my interests in geography and the social context of science. after that, i spent a year with mit opencourseware, an intitiative to put all of mit's course materials on the web. it, too, offered an interesting environment for my interests -- not to mention some good games of wiffle ball. i am currently a graduate student in the history of science program at the university of wisconsin at madison. i'm interested mainly in the history of technology and environmental history, technological sites and projects in natural settings, urban and rural perspectives on scientific and technological issues, and public perceptions of science. |
