I have presented workshops and lectures on a range of topics, including:
New for the 2015-16 academic year: A day-long series of workshops on Dismantling Rape Culture! Creative writing, media analysis, legal rights and responsibilities, trauma stewardship, and a public lecture on student activism -- all designed to listen to and learn from the very students who are leading the multifaceted movement to end sexual violence! Contact me for more information!
