Lisa Denig has dedicated much of her career to pioneering Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Initiatives within the New York State Court System.

What is queerbaiting, exactly?
In an interview with USA Today, Melvin Williams, professor of communication and media studies at Pace University, summed up the concept: "Queerbaiting is a strategy used by content creators and media producers to attract queer audiences — via homoeroticism, suggestive marketing and storylines, and other symbolisms — and to insinuate queer identities and relationships between media characters and viewers."
