Cana Uluak Itchuaqiyaq (she/they) is an assistant professor of professional and technical writing at Virginia Tech. As a technical communication and rhetoric scholar, their research combines the digital humanities, data analysis, critical race theory, and Indigenous knowledges to investigate the intersections of identity, science/technology/medicine, colonialism, and culture in order to effectively reveal how mainstream academic, institutional, and societal practice often perpetuates the marginalization of underrepresented scholars and communities. They use theory and data to develop effective methods that equip others to do respectful research and social justice work in technical communication and other disciplines.
