Ji-Hyeun Kwon-Min

I graduated with a degree in public policy and women's studies. And, I'm now working for a social policy research firm called Mathematica Policy Research. It has multiple offices across the country, but I'm located in DC. As a research assistant/programmer, I assist project directors with interviews, literature review, and reports. I also use SAS and Stata to write codes for data analysis. Most of my projects deal with domestic issues, but I have two international projects as well. I even get to use Spanish!

When I am not writing reports or SAS codes for eight hours straight, I'm practicing yoga, running, eating vegetables or participating in cupcake eating contests.

P.S. During my naturalization process, I changed my last name from Kwon to Kwon-Min to recognize my mom's contribution to my life.
