Biography

I was born on December 7, 1984 to Susan and Edward Cramp, Sr. I was raised on a farm in Oley, Pennsylvania. I graduated high school in 2003, near the top of my class. Following high school, I attended Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania where I received a Bachelor’s degree in physics and mathematics in 2007. Following my college graduation, I moved to Rochester, New York to continue my studies. In 2010, I received a Master’s degree in physics with a focus in plasma physics from the University of Rochester, ending my formal education. Since then, I remained in Rochester. I volunteer for and hold the title of Lead Mechanic at R Community Bikes, a community bike shop. I have been predominantly a cycling commuter since 2008, and have gone without a car since 2012. I am an engaged advocate for active transportation.
