Are those dogs driving?

So who is this Mike Vuolo anyway?

This is the obligatory part of the webpage where I say a little something about myself, referring to myself in the third person. Mike Vuolo is a PhD candidate (expected 2009) in the Department of Sociology here at the University of Minnesota. He received a Statistics MS from the University of Minnesota in 2007. That seems like enough.

What I've been up to

I am currently a data analyst for the Youth Development Study and project manager for P.I. Professor Chris Uggen (my advisor) on the study "The Effects of Low-Level Offense Records and Race on Employability." I occassionally do private statistical consulting related to the social sciences, e-mail me for more information. Here's some recently published articles.

To see my pics

The UserID is 'anybody' and the password is (one of) my dog's name (all lower case). If you don't know his name, you probably shouldn't be looking at my pics, but you can e-mail me for the password.
