Hi! My name is Rachel Parco. I am from Aurora, Colorado and moved to Utah in 2014. I currently live in Payson, Utah. I graduated with my Bachelor’s Degree in Neuroscience in 2020. My research interests include social psychology, disability studies, social change, and education. I am particularly interested in the Neurodiversity Movement and its social implications for autism. I love sociology because of the big-picture thinking it provides to so many disciples. Learning about sociology has changed the way I see the world, inspiring me to think critically, to embrace diversity, and to be more considerate of others. In my spare time, I love running, singing, and learning just about anything.
