I was the chair of the LGBTQIA+ Faculty/Staff Network. I also have worked at BU for 6 years. I went to school for chemistry and I’m first-gen alumn!
I chose to apply as chair to create a better support system for LGBTQ+ folxs at BU because I felt like being black and queer there was nothing at BU or Boston to build a community.
