After Princeton, I went into consulting and private equity.    Read more.

I did the history of science program, which I didn't even realize existed until I took a freshman seminar on history of science during WWII. After graduating, I got a Fulbright and did a Master’s in Science Communication at Dublin City University. Currently I have a fellowship in Washington, DC, at the Science and Technology Policy Institute (STPI), and I'm applying to law school.   Read more.

I’m currently in San Luis Obispo, California, where I work for Cal Poly’s Robert E. Kennedy Library as a research fellow, working to promote accessibility of scholarship through non-traditional methods. At Princeton, I majored in History and got certificates in Visual Arts and European Cultural Studies, focusing on the history of reading and of public spaces. I also have a Masters in Decorative Arts, Design History, and Material Culture from the Bard Graduate Center in New York City, where I spent a lot of my time thinking and working with the history of trash.   Read more.
