I am an Asian mixed-race queer PhD candidate in Kinesiology and Physical Education at the University of Toronto. My dissertation: Let Me Be Perfectly Queer: Amplifying Narratives of Racialized 2SLGBTQ+ Embodiment and Joy in Powerlifting, includes autoethnographic work as I compete in powerlifting at the Gay Games in Valencia, Spain 2026.

I also engages in qualitative research with both queer and trans powerlifters as well as queer and trans powerlifting coaches to broaden knowledge and understanding of what embodied learning can be.

She’s a work in progress, so come back later.
