As the DEI Grants Consultant in the College of Engineering's Office of Culture, Community, and Equity (OCCE), Savannah helps faculty develop their grant proposals and writes proposals in support of OCCE's K-20 programs. She consults on DEI-specific sections of grants proposals - such as broader impacts, educational activities, community benefits, and culture of inclusion plans - for federal and corporate/foundation funders. Savannah holds a PhD in English from Indiana University with a research focus in cultural studies, de-colonial independence movements, and inclusive and equitable teaching practices. She enjoys bringing her humanities-focused lens to engineering disciplines, guiding faculty in articulating the potential social impact and ethical implications of their research.
