Tristan Crowell will speak about how difficult it can make sense of what’s going on during uncertain times and how we should respond to any of it. Leaning on our connections can be an important part in the process of understanding.

Tristan is a queer, Filipino immigrant whose life and work is motivated by a desire to explore alternative ways of existing, being a good neighbor, and cultivating hope for everything that is not here. He received his Bachelor of Science in Sociology from the University of Minnesota and his Master of Social Work from Augsburg University where he currently serves as a Student Specialist in the Department of Multicultural Life. Most importantly, he’s just a guy.
