Maureen A. Flint is an Associate Professor in the Qualitative Research Program in the Department of Lifelong Education, Administration, and Policy at the University of Georgia. Her scholarship centers feminist methodologies and the possibilities they offer for reimagining how qualitative research is conceptualized, practiced, taught, and represented. Drawing from feminist, posthuman, and critical materialist theories, her work engages questions of knowledge production, ethics, power, embodiment, and relation in qualitative inquiry. She is particularly interested in artful and multimodal methods that challenge and trouble conventional modes of knowing and representation.

Across her research, Flint works with visual, sonic, and other experimental qualitative methodologies. Her scholarship also examines qualitative research pedagogy, including how researchers learn methodological practices and how teaching might create space for more relational, creative, and critically engaged approaches to inquiry. This interest extends to her teaching, which includes courses in feminist and posthuman methodologies, visual inquiry, narrative inquiry, oral history, qualitative research design and analysis, and qualitative writing.

Beyond her research and teaching, Flint has served for the past two years as faculty advisor for the UGA student branch of URGE (Unite for Reproductive and Gender Equity). She is also an Associate with the National Sustained Dialogue Institute and a member of the Classic City Rotary Club.

Her recent work includes the Routledge edited collection Critical Qualitative Methodologies in Gender and Sexuality: Key Concepts (2026), co-edited with Luis Alvarez Hernandez, Janie Copple, Joseph Sweet, and Whitney Toledo, as well as two companion special issues on artful inquiry in Qualitative Inquiry and the International Journal of Qualitative Research, co-edited with Kelly Guyotte and Carlson Coogler and published in 2025.

Currently, Flint is working with collaborator Kiana Willis on a multimodal project exploring creative practices in teaching and learning (more at www.inquiringartfully.com). She is also co-editing Qualitative Pedagogy as Gift: Creatively Exploring Teaching Commitments and Reciprocations with Kelly Guyotte. More of her work can be found at www.maureenflint.com.
