STEM Education
As a faculty member at WPI I began conducting interdisciplinary research spanning the fields of STEM education and science, technology, and society applying an intersectional feminist lens.
This heavily interdisciplinary work centers around the student experience in US higher education. Specifically, I am interested in understanding and analyzing systemic barriers and personal challenges faced by students from marginalized groups in STEM spaces.
