As a first-generation student and an activist for sexually exploited people, Bianca looks forward to changing practices and policies that impact the global majority. Bianca is currently in sociology MA program, and they will graduate in spring of May 2023 with a certificate in college teaching at UNCO. They enjoy writing, journaling and painting. Most of their research focuses on creating accessible education, art activism, and the impact of sexual exploitation through frameworks like intersectionality, critical race theory, and culturally sustaining pedagogy. They believe these frameworks are needed in the anti-trafficking field to inform change and to allow the global majority to thrive. Bianca is a McNair alumni and Stryker alumni, and through their experience in these programs they have learned how to collaborate with others with patience, kindness, and vulnerability.
