Rebecca Strang
Student and Research Assistant in Algonquin, Illinois
I am a Digital Media student at Loyola University Chicago‘s School of Communication. I am interested in games and the people who make and play them. Specifically, I am interested in gender studies within gaming AND how games are used as tools of communication and community building. I strive to advocate for inclusivity in games.
I am a gamer. I play computer games and board games, though board games are getting much more of my time these days. My office is in the best room in the house: the game room. My husband, Greg, and I are continually building our gaming sanctuary. When gaming, I am the blue meeple.
Other hobbies include reading and collecting beautiful books. I also enjoy dressing up for 1920s parties and renaissance faires.
I am a cat lover. Greg and I serve four adorable cats who own us completely: Franklin, Charlotte, Aurora, and Nox.
