Graduate Student in Sociology and Social Policy

Biographical Note

Eva graduated from Barnard College in 2005 with a BA in Political Science and French and Francophone Studies. Her undergraduate research examined the way in which the French state deals with the cultural and religious differences that arise from the presence of minority and immigrant populations. She has since worked at the Center for Urban Research and Policy at Columbia University, doing research on topics such as Chicago's public housing, gangs, prisoner reentry, and the informal economy. Eva also conducted ethnographic research on sex workers in Chicago, examining sex work as as supplement to or replacement for low-wage labor, as part of strategy to make ends meet. Eva's research interests are rooted in stratification, urban marginality, poverty, and immigration.
