Long Bio
is an auntie, truth-teller, lover & Black feminist scholar, currently studying at Arizona State University in the Gender Studies doctoral program. Their research explores how trauma (historical, intergenerational and otherwise) is mediated by blackness, transness, & queerness, specifically in relation to those who identify and/or are identified as femme, nonbinary, and woman. Sarah is a storyteller, autoethnographer & bricoleur seeking to honor, hold space, & sit in the ick of the dark and painful realities of existing with conquistador-settlers on stolen land. Grounded by an ethic of abundant love, Sarah explores how healing is made possible in relation, in re-narration towards a hopeful, pleasurable future we all deserve.
