Gregoria is a PhD candidate in the Department of Ethnic Studies whose research draws from the fields of Latinx & Caribbean Studies, Queer Diaspora Studies, Queer of Color Critique, Performance Studies, and Afro-Caribbean Feminist Thought. Gregoria’s dissertation traces queer and erotic self-fashioning, performativity, and desire in occupied-Panamá to consider how queer temporality and counter-publics/geographies trouble the terms of occupation.
