Taryn Frerichs

Graduate Student

My name is Taryn Frerichs, and I am from Spokane, Washington. I graduated from BYU in 2026 after studying Sociology with a minor in Global Women's Studies. I am very passionate about the way that sociology influences our everyday lives, especially the factors that often seem invisible. My research interests surround anything related to family, social stratification and inequality, and political sociology. When I'm not working, I can often be found spending time with friends and loved ones, watching a good movie, or reading a fun book.
