Using ArcGIS StoryMaps, Sean integrates his passions for storytelling and mapping to better illustrate and examine queer stories. In applying queer theory to maps (queer geography), we can examine the binaries in which we’ve considered queers in space, as well as reimagine space itself as queer. Sean strongly believes that queer people need to scrutinize both geography and GIS, and at the same time, GIScientists and geographers need to care for, represent, and map queer communities and issues. As a storyteller who focuses on queer spatial belonging, Sean stumbled his way into the world of queer geography and is now a fierce proponent of the theory. This project studied and documented the contributions queer folx and people of color have made to the history of conservation, geography, GIS, and technology.

In August 2020, he began co-authoring sections of An Inclusive History of Conservation GIS with the Esri Conservation Program. Recent plays include: The Children’s Farm (Custom Made Theatre – SF), Flat Fish (LabTheatre – NYC), Zap (Lounge Theatre – LA), Bonkers for Bonkers (NYC LGBT Center). in Applied Playwriting from the University of Redlands’ Johnston Center for Integrative Studies, he went on to have his stories produced across the country.

Visual imagery + Paintings included in my performance pieces accompany/contextualize my body. The primary material in my work has been Mi Cuerpo, my body, since it is the vessel through which I experience this life and through which this world perceives me. My multidisciplinary exploration of reality questions ideas surrounding power, intimacy, divinity, and art’s relationship to society.
