Brendan Frizzell

Frizzell's research primarily investigates Latin American topics of economic sociology, family, immigration, and their intersections. His current research aims to expand sociological literature examining the relationship between economic circumstances and family-formation strategies such as cohabitation. For his undergraduate honors thesis, he specifically studied rising inflation in Buenos Aires, Argentina and how it influenced cohabiting household formation, especially in two-person households. Frizzell previously worked with local and international NGOs, including Fundación Ruta 40 in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Advocates for Immigrant Survivors in Houston, Texas.
