Meet Stevie! Stevie is a fourth-year student majoring in English-Rhetorics of Science, Technology, and Culture, minoring in Integrated Strategic Communication, and is obtaining a certificate in Interdisciplinary Linguistics. Passionate about trans rhetoric, disability rights, and media censorship, Stevie is drawn to the intersections of activism, communication, and representation, especially in queer spaces. With a deep love for film, research, and storytelling, it’s especially excited to spotlight queer voices that challenge norms, center marginalized identities, and embrace vulnerability.

Outside of Q-Fest, Stevie’s got it made for themselves; conlanging just for fun (with over 20 invented languages and counting!), collecting physical media, experimenting with comfort cooking, reading tarot, and playing Animal Crossing for hours on end. Stevie’s favorite tarot card is The High Priestess-intuitive, insightful, and wise; exactly the energy Stevie wants to bring to the team.
