Giuseppe Femia

Giuseppe Femia completed a BA (English, Rhetoric, Media, and Professional Communication & Honours Arts and Business) and an MA (Rhetoric and Communication Design) at the University of Waterloo. Now a PhD student, Giuseppe’s research in game studies, media studies, queer studies, and disability studies observes different types of gaming media and the appeal it has to its audience. Giuseppe is pursuing a Certificate in University Teaching from the Centre for Teaching Excellence to complement his experience as a TA and the scholarship he has done in the academic realm of teaching and learning. He previously presented at the Transformative Play Initiative Seminar in Visby, Sweden, and is now partnering up with other scholars researching the intersection of disability studies and game studies to broaden the horizons of the growing field.
