About me

I am student studying History and Sociology with a minor in Poverty, Justice and Human Capabilities at Rice University. I am interested in academic research that connects to social justice and addresses inequalities. I hope to contribute to areas of wikipedia that deal with these issues, and more specifically, how these issues relate to gender.
