One of my fav things about conferences is connecting PhD students with faculty, whether they share interests, methodologies, or are at locations they hope to work at.
If you’re a queer, trans, disabled, neurodivergent, racialized, immigrant, or other marginalized doc student #CSWE25, come say hi!

1. Six years ago, during the hardest winter of my life, I found myself again. A month later, I found myself again, under a cherry blossom tree.
On Trans Day of Visibility this year, we travel through our toughest winter.
But we know the promise of spring.
