Erin Gill (she/her) is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education. She received her PhD in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. 

Her research meets at the intersection of K-12 education, LGBTQ+ student well-being, and geography. She uses quantitative methods to examine how K-12 educational policies, programs, and practices contribute to spatial inequities in LGBTQ+ student well-being. 

Her research interests emerge from her experiences as a rural K-12 educator. Erin taught art, led student and teacher mentoring programs, and served as a local teacher association leader for 5 years at a rural high school in Indiana.
