    Community Centered

    Creating a dialogue with community is essential with all research projects. Whether it is a community advisory board, or disseminating the results- I can help increase the inclusivity in your work.

    Trauma-Informed

    As a certified domestic violence advocate I prioritize the safety of participants in all projects. If you need help reducing harm beyond an Institutional Review Board (IRB), I can help.

Working Together

Diversifying LGBTQ+ research is the bedrock of my work. I use creative approaches to keep community centered in the projects I am a part of.
