Zia was a PhD student in Feminist Studies, with designated emphases in Astronomy & Astrophysics and Critical Race and Ethnic Studies at the University of California Santa Cruz. They were one of the Phd students fired because of their activism during the 2019-2020 graduate student wildcat strike that emerged due to the precarious conditions of the UC system. Even though the university rehired them, Zia decided to leave their program when the pandemic started to dedicate themself to their artistic/spiritual practice. During their time at UCSC, Zia worked as the Program Coordinator at the Disability Resource Center, and as a researcher-artist for the Critical Realities Studio (Art & Design: Games + Playable Media). Zia’s academic work integrates feminist techno-science, abolitionist & indigenous knowledges and practices, multimedia arts, poetry, and spirituality to explore the challenges and potentialities of creating decolonial models for space exploration. As the co-founder of “The Queer Futures Collective” —they worked on creating cultural programming, workshops, trainings, mentorship programs, and collective healing spaces to re-imagine notions of futurity and care for queer, trans and disabled people. As a teacher, Zia integrates feminist pedagogies, with plastic/performative arts, and new media to create empowering, engaging, and transformative learning experiences that involve the mind, the body, and the spirit. For more than fifteen years–while working as a college professor, workshop facilitator, and/or community organizer–Zia has passionately focused on developing teaching methodologies that center the needs of women and queer trans people of color, and that honor the equal value of our thoughts and feelings as ways of knowing. They graduated with an M.A. in Women's Studies and a Graduate Certificate in LGBT Studies from San Diego State University–where they worked as a Lecturer until Spring 2018. In addition, Zia graduated with an M.A. in Performing Arts (URJC-Spain), a B.A. in Media Studies (UCAB-Venezuela)– and has worked as a writer, editor, dramaturgist, curator, actor/performer, and director in more than 30 cultural projects in Europe, Latin America, and the U.S.
