I am a 2003 double major in Economics and Sociology. My related coursework
at Dartmouth focused on economic sociology, social psychology, and
organizational sociology, with focus on digital/internet trust research. The
sociology department was for me a great place to grow in terms of scientific
curiosity and knowledge, and to learn about myself as a person and about what I
expect from a career - if not necessarily in terms of job title, at least in
terms of topics I am interested in, and environments and outcomes that motivate
me in work and life. Following graduation, I worked on intellectual property
and antitrust expert testimonies in economic consulting for NERA
<http://www.nera.com/> , and in strategy and operations consulting for
Deloitte
<http://www.deloitte.com/dtt/section_node/0,1042,sid%253D26551,00.html>
Consulting. After gaining some work experience, I returned to school for a
joint Sociology-Business Ph.D. <http://www.hbs.edu/doctoral/programs/ob/>
degree in Organizational Behavior from Harvard Business School. The
sociological theory knowledge I acquired during my undergraduate years, and
which I am currently improving upon at Harvard will inform my interests, and
will help apply my work experience to academic research on social networks,
knowledge management, and organizational behavior.
