A.J. Walker

(she/her/hers)

With everything Aeron “A.J.” Walker writes, she hopes her work will be a catalyst for more empathy in our world. Born in Houston, Texas and raised in Southern California, Walker is a writer, researcher, filmmaker, and activist. She received a B.A. in English (College Arts & Sciences), a B.S. in Television, Radio, & Film (S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications), and a minor in Theater from Syracuse University.

A Master’s student in Media Studies in the Moody College of Communication, Walker has committed her life to speaking up and making room for diversity. Her research focus is children's programming and representation in media's impact on society (identity, culture, gender, and sexuality).

In her free time, Walker loves to watch television shows of all genres, time periods, and formats (weekly watch and binge shows). She also enjoys going to the movie theater.
