I would say that my Sociology background has informed all the work I've done since graduation: 1st as an AmeriCorps member working with families in subsidized housing, then as a graduate student at Harvard's School of Education, from which I received an M.Ed. I now work as the Coordinator of an initiative called "Choosing to Participate: Facing History and Ourselves," which includes a multimedia exhibit about the effects individual choices have on the course of history. Sociology gave me a context to think about the interactions between individuals and groups in society and the ways those interactions effect all aspects of our daily lives. It also helped me to define the way that I myself want to participate.
