About
Bailey Otter is a second-year PhD student in Sociology at the University of Michigan, a predoctoral trainee at the Population Studies Center, and a Rackham Merit Fellow. Bailey’s research examines how nonbinary people (individuals whose gender identities exist beyond the man/woman binary) construct, express, and negotiate their identities within mid and late life. These inquiries live at the intersection of gender, health, family, embodiment, and aging.
Bailey earned their BA in Sociology from Texas A&M University Corpus Christi. In undergrad, they were a McNair Scholar and did research on nonbinary joy. They are a proud first-generation college student and would love to connect with prospective graduate students over email or Zoom.
