Hi! My name is Briana Louise Kunstman. I am a Social-Personality Psychology PhD Student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

I am a member of the Etiology of Personality and Individual Characteristics (EPIC) Lab and have the pleasure of working alongside Dr. Jaime Derringer and Dr. Ava Briley. My research interests include BDSM and kink as well as gender identity and sexuality. I am a member of the APA Division 44 BDSM and Kink Task Force. I received my Bachelors of Arts degrees in Psychology and Women and Gender Sexuality Studies from Augustana College in 2023.
