Terra is a neuroqueer researcher investigating how the experiences from living outside the “norm” of society results in queer and neurodivergent individuals creating unique metaphors and storytelling techniques that often differ from traditional narratives. Her current research attempts to expand digital narrative designs to include concepts like Queer Failure so that neuroqueer stories might be understood within and more widely studied by the academic community. To accomplish this Terra synthesizes theoretical elements from Queer Theory, Digital Media, and Science Fiction Studies in addition to
designing and building media experiences across a wide range of technologies and mediums.
