junction treesResearch Interests
Integrating historical and emerging feminist practices and theories inspires my research.  By combining bits and pieces of repressed stories I am exploring systematic approaches to defining gender identity, culture and social media through researching propaganda, bias, discrimination, and political agendas.
 
Views on Service
I find myself serving in an academic and community setting.  I believe in providing service as a means to expanding my research into real lived experiences and practice.  I am committed to serving in a capacity to bring awareness of artistic practices, considering the impacts of emerging technologies, changes in public policy, and environmental and resource constraints that are likely to affect society at large.
