Gwen Chambers is an aspiring sociologist whose research focuses on disability and sexuality. This spring, she completes her master’s degree in sociology at UCCS, and she plans to begin her PhD next fall. She aims to use her research to spread awareness and advocate for the disabled community, and she participates in activist work across many spheres. She is very passionate about the fight for equity and justice, be it through work in anti-racist, feminist, queer, disabled, or anti-capitalist spaces. She hopes to teach at local institutions and spread sociological knowledge and passion to the community. In her free time, Gwen plays the cello, teaches music lessons, operates a small jewelry business, dances, and works as a therapist for disabled children. She wishes to express her gratitude to the many key people who have journeyed with her through grad school and countless other challenges over the years. These individuals include the faculty of the sociology department, the other students in the master’s program, and her friends and loved ones, many of whom she met through the university. The time Gwen has spent at UCCS has been deeply influential, and immensely enjoyable.
