Annie (she/her) is a volunteer organizer with the Los Angeles Tenants Union and a PhD candidate in History at UCLA. She is a scholar of landless people’s political movements in the 20th century United States, and her work focuses on the National Union of the Homeless (NUH), a formation that seized and redistributed vacant urban land during the Long 1980s.

In addition to studying the NUH, she is an active participant in the group's 21st century revival -- as both a historian and an organizer. Told from Los Angeles, where Annie organizes housed and unhoused people together on the neighborhood level, her dissertation aims to arm poor communities in struggle with the weapon of their own history.
