  Performed independent research at Occidental College for a 10 week period over the summer through the Undergraduate Research Center, culminating in a presentation at the Occidental Summer Research Conference. My research focuses on the concept of the "ethnoburb" in Urban Sociology and the Sociology of Immigration and Assimilation, reviewing ideas such as segmented assimilation, how theories of assimilation have changed over time, and the factors and contexts behind ethnic groups assimilating into the USA. I am currently in the process of studying Irvine, California's ethnic Chinese immigrant community, to analyze similarities and differences to the ethnoburb of the San Gabriel Valley, through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the work and social lives of ethnic Chinese immigrants in Irvine, CA.
