My writing primarily focuses on human rights and social justice with common themes including queerness, gender diversity, neurodivergence, and intersectionality. I have written articles, professional papers, personal essays, and creative works that have been published in LGBTIQA+ media, literary journals, scholarly journals and online publications.
