About Jorden Jackson and Anna Shetler

I'm a dual-title PhD candidate in Rural Sociology and Demography at Penn State. My research investigates the social and environmental drivers of population health. I also conduct research regarding fertility, migration, community well-being, and sexual and domestic violence. I conduct both qualitative and quantitative research using survey, interview, focus group, and geocoded data. My interdisciplinary training in the fields of sociology and demography has prepared me for a career of methodologically and statistically rigorous research with on the ground impact.
