Hi I am Jackson David. An I am a student at Dakota State University in the United States. Currently, working on my dissertation, with most of my research relying on qualitative data. I love to go deep into people's stories and experiences, which is what pulls me to this kind of work in the first place. Outside of school, I enjoy riding my bicycle as it enables me to calm my mind and think creatively. Trying to balance studies and interests is not always easy, but I try to make time for both. If you are also working on your dissertation using qualitative data, then I feel you; it's not an easy road but a rewarding one.
