transformational resistance and identitydevelopment. Through her narrative, we see how transformational resistance can occur at anypart of the identity development process, though certain identities during these parts may not besalient or significant to the individual. This paper addresses the complexity in creating diversity,equity, and inclusion (DEI) spaces for invisible marginalized identities and offers the experiencesof the participant to question the bounds of inclusivity in these spaces.IntroductionUnderstanding the lived experiences of invisible marginalized people in STEM (Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is paramount to well-executed diversity, equity, andinclusion (DEI) programs.

With moreengineering students, and fewer engineering faculty members, Nigerian engineering students(especially those in a non-private institutions) attend overcrowded classes [20], that are mostlynot technologically supported to enhance learning. As such, the students may have to: 1) get tothe class earlier (to secure a good sitting spot), 2) shun the noises and be highly attentive to thelecture, 3) seek a tutoring time (often conducted by a senior student who has previously done theclass before and more knowledgeable), 4) join smaller study group
