Abby Neisen

Abby Neisen (they/them) is a queer/gender non-conforming person who graduated with a Bachelors of Science from North Dakota State University in 2022. Abby started their career post-college serving as an AmeriCorps VISTA with QUEERSPACE collective where they gained experience in LGBTQIA+ advocacy, education, mentorship, identity growth, training and education in communities nationwide and more.

From there, their passion for supporting queer youth only grew and they transitioned into a QUEERSPACE Program & Training Coordinator role after their VISTA service year. They hope to continue to create safer spaces for all of the queer youth in their communities and to continue educating the broader  community members on how to better support the LGBQTIA+ community, because we all deserve to feel like we belong.
