Race, Ethnicity, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Faculty and Staff

I have a PhD in Performance Studies from Northwestern University and an MFA in Performance from School of the Art Institute of Chicago. My research focuses on contemporary queer and trans performance and visual art in the U.S. and Latin America. At UW-EC, I teach courses for the LGBTQ Studies certificate and the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies major, minor, and certificate.
