In June 2023, I earned my PhD in Sociology with a Designated Emphasis in Feminist Theory and Research at the University of California, Davis. My areas of specialization are gender, sexuality, and the family. I am dedicated to diversifying academic representations of LGBTQ+ families by incorporating bisexual, transgender, and asexual identities into research on queer parenthood. My recently completed dissertation highlights the experiences of bisexual parents as they navigate discussing sexuality with their children. My research has received funding from the American Institute of Bisexuality and the University of California, Davis. I am the creator of one of the largest and most comprehensive existing surveys of bisexual individuals, with more than 6500 completed responses. Access to the survey and its data can be found on the research page of this website.
