“It seems like we're just in this uncomfortable and complicated space where we're fighting for so many different things,” Gaynor told WVXU.  

Gaynor’s research focuses on issues related to social (in)justice, cultural competency and social equity within a U.S. and global context, particularly as it relates to underrepresented and marginalized populations.
