"Being a graduate of the Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies Program at Duke is among the most formative experiences of my life. I learned to meld theory with practice, action with health, activism with compassion. I learned to attune myself, across all my work, to questions of gender and sexuality, while prioritizing the body as a way of knowing. My time as an undergrad in the program at Duke informs all my work still, as a scholar, teacher, artist, author, administrator, and citizen. I recall clearly, still, key moments and key teachers. They have been my compass."
