About Me

Hi there! Thanks for wandering onto my website. My name’s Amy, and I’m a fourth-year graduate student at the University of Texas at Austin (hook’em). I’m working towards getting my Ph.D. in Sociology, and I’m based out of Austin, Texas.

I’m a huge fan of dogs, penguins, oxford commas, and protected left turns. In my non-academic life, if I’m not cheering on the Longhorns or the San Antonio Spurs, I’m probably reading a book somewhere or working on my dance skills (let me take you to a West Coast Swing class sometime!). I love to travel, and I’ve spent some time in about half of the states in the USA, China, Nicaragua, Mexico, Italy, Great Britain, Sweden, and Japan — hopefully I can add more to that list soon!

I’ve had a passion for photography and design since I was a young teenager, and I’m really grateful to have had the opportunity to improve on these skills over the years. In college, I spent three and a half years on the staff of The Daily Texan, working my way through every position in the photo department before eventually switching into management. Currently, I do freelance design work for the TexARTS Association.

Got any questions for me? Feel free to download my CV or contact me through the relevant tabs on the top right. Thanks for stopping by!
