Welcome to the newly rebranded home of Public Policy.
Long-time readers will notice a significant change in our visual identity. We have retired the previous branding to make way for a look that reflects the evolution of this platform. This is no longer just a space for casual observation; it is a space for critical analysis.
As a Doctor of Public Administration (DPA) student and an Equity Fellow, my work has shifted toward a deeper interrogation of the systems that govern us. I am interested in the gaps between legislative intent and lived reality—specifically, how administrative timelines and digital governance often exclude non-normative life cycles and underserved communities.
Here, we will explore:
The Digital Divide: How policies on the web differ from the realities of daily life.
Health Equity: Analyzing the "administrative chrononormativity" that impacts queer health and marginalized groups.
Governance: Insights from my work with the Graduate and Adult Student Government (GASG) and local commissions.
Thank you for joining me as we peel back the layers of public administration to find the human stories underneath.
