Aphrodite Vlahos
PhD in Marketing, completed 2021
"When I started my PhD, I had been trained as an experimental researcher, and I came in thinking that’s what I was going to do – experimental consumer research! One of the best parts of being in a diverse department like the department of Management and Marketing, is how helpful and encouraging everyone is at doing different kinds of research."
