About
MY BACKGROUND
Hi! I’m Madison (Maddie) Schony. I’m currently going into my 2nd year of my graduate program in the Experimental Health PhD program at Ohio University.
​
Most of my research has a connection to the natural world, with current projects revolving around environmental attitudes, time spent in nature, and various connections to nature.
When I’m not researching, performing TA duties, or doing coursework, I enjoy being outdoors: camping, hiking, and nature walks are among my favorite activities. I also enjoy reading fictional books and working out in the gym.
​
Feel free to browse my site to see all that I have to offer.

I'm currently working on evaluating connections to nature in relation to grief.
