Long Term Goals: "Being a research consultant at CSSI allows me to hone my methodology skills by using them in diverse situations and helps improve my methodology teaching skills. My long-term academic and career goals heavily involve research, and my job at CSSI allows me to obtain skills and experiences that will assist me in many areas of research. I also enjoy helping others with data and methodological problems and being a part of the research process."

About Chase: "In my free time, I enjoy reading and playing video games, mostly of the science fiction and fantasy variety. I enjoy being outside and going to parks and festivals. I picked up knitting while I was in Norway, but I am very bad at it and need more practice. I also enjoy environmental activism and am looking into local environmental organizations to volunteer with."
