Grad Student Spotlight (Part 1)

QTRL Graduate Research Assistants Elio Colavito and Kanika Lawton discuss how their time at the Queer and Trans Research Lab has informed their own work and lives; Elio reflects on how their work has influenced their perspective on navigating a neurotypical world, and Kanika unpacks how working on Asian-American studies has augmented their research in Trans and Queer of Color theory and Ornamentalism. They also discuss their research processes, the complicated interplay between trans and disability studies, poetry, and much, much more!
