Description
Assistant Professor of sociology at the University of Michigan since 2016. Research focused on LGBTQ inequality issues in STEM, and she is an influential scholar of gender inequality. Her work looks at the subtle cultural processes that lead LGBTQ persons, women and people of color to be excluded and silenced within the context of STEM education and STEM workplaces. She worked on the first published research on sexual minorities in engineering and now leads the first large-scale project exploring LGBTQ inequality in STEM industries and academia, with particular attention to intersectional processes of disadvantage.
