I love seeing queer people, or families of a queer child, find my queer culture stories. When a supportive parent buys my queer art for their child, it warms my heart and makes me feel hopeful for the next generation of queer youth. (Pictured on the right)

Dr. Julie Shayne and Dr. Yolanda Padilla brought me out of my little bubble, and it was powerful to see them do the same for other students and then watch the students grow and become more and more confident. They are the reason that I want to be a professor one day.

Our school has an amazing and dedicated team of faculty and staff who are not only deeply committed to serving our students but are equally committed to educational justice.
Dr. Wayne Au Dean and Professor, School of Educational Studies
Because of my experience working as lead peer adviser, I knew I really liked giving structure, having organization and coming up with programs that are designed well and meant to have outcomes that support people. It was really the gateway to the rest of my career. (Pictured on the left)

I strive to teach in ways that center students, their experiences and their identities, and also empower them to co-lead and co-facilitate so that decisions, whenever possible, are made collectively and with consent.
