Gabriella Luther (she/her) was born and raised Portland and she knows all the best food spots! Her interest in reducing child abuse and neglect stems from her passion for better understanding and preventing mental and physical health disparities for underserved populations, especially BIPOC children and adults. She is a current Ph.D. Counseling Psychology graduate student. She works as a research assistant for CPAN, focusing on reducing identity-based violence and exploring creative outreach projects. Outside of her research for CPAN, Gabriella works as a mental health therapist while finishing her dissertation which examines factors that contribute to depression among Multiracial people. In her free time, she loves repeatedly lifting heavy things and reading as many fantasy novels as she can get her hands on.
