Research Statement:
Using intersectionality, a framework that considers how overlapping identities shape experiences, my research focuses on equity systems in higher education. I use qualitative techniques including institutional ethnography, interviews, participant observations, and social network analysis, to critically examine the mechanisms of discrimination that are embedded in our institutional and ideological practices and highlight key organizational sites where educational equity and inequity intersect.
