Biography
Nick Thuot is a white and genderqueer student affairs practitioner committed to dismantling systems of oppression and helping others find ways to enact liberation every day. Nick worked in university residence life programs for five years, where they strived to create a home for marginalized students within higher education despite higher education not being created with them in mind. Presently, Nick administratively supports attorneys and law students as they provide legal assistance to people who are incarcerated. Beyond work, Nick finds profound joy in eating, dreaming about liberation, and one day having an English bulldog as a companion.
