I’m a recent graduate from Mississippi State with a Psychology degree and two minors in Statistics and Cognitive Science. This website has been made in R using the “Blogdown” package as developed by Yihui Xie. I’ve made this partly to talk about academic topics in a fun and unique way, but I’ve primarily made it to show off some of the skills I’ve accrued to anyone that’s interested.

R is the language that I’m most familiar with since I’ve been using it for the past 4 years. It is also what I used to make this website using the blogdown and markdown packages!
As a Clinical Psych research assistant I gained lots of experience working with SPSS and IBM’s internal language “Syntax” while working on lab projects.I have also used AMOS and Process to perform Structural Equation Modeling and Mediation in APA hosted workshops.
It wasn’t until I took experimental psychology in my sophomore year that I decided to start taking statistics seriously. Since then I have completed my statistics minor and have taken several graduate level statistics courses.
I was first introduced to LaTeX by the math department at Mississippi State and I have been using it for all my academic writing since.
I am the current president of MSU’s chess club and was vp for 2 years before that. I’ve been in charge of promoting the club, securing funding, and organizing events. Since starting, we’ve increase attendance from ~8 per meeting to over 40 with are largest event hosting over 300.
