Biography

Rachel Owens is currently majoring in Data Science and Social Systems, with a focus on Democracy and Governance. She is interested in how we as people choose to set up our societies and governance systems, and how — for the social problems that inevitably arise — the utilization of an interdisciplinary approach can more effectively solve these issues. Outside of academics, rock climbing, mountaineering, and photographic endeavors consume much of her time.
