Background
my work builds upon combining my love of post colonial theory, critical race theory, queer theory, and feminist theory with my love of neurological pathways for attention, decision-making, behavior, and habits. exploring notions of otherness, identity, positionality, behavior, -isms, power; hoping to establish behavioral, habitual, neurological underpinnings of othering. if it is socio-psycho-biologically learned, it can be unlearned.
