Pop culture is a reflection of what society considers valid “culture.” Counter-culture offers a way to challenge and deconstruct societal “norms.” #HiEDPopCult vox.com/first-person/2…

#AcademicTwitter demonstrates and reinforces many systems of power. Production pressure, long hours, and free labor are often normalized but they must be challenged. #HiEDPopCult

Check me out tomorrow at 1:45pm for #ASHE2020 “I Can’t Identify as American”: Impact of Racist Nativism and Study Abroad on Latinx Students #studyabroad #Latinxs #highered

I will also be co-presenting a paper w/Alicia A. Moreno, PhD & Lesley Rivas - Moving Beyond “Men, Males, and Men of Color” in Higher Education. This paper seeks to complicate & interrogate the ways dominant hegemonic masculinity plagues our research and practices. #ASHE21

So excited to share my research at the #ASHE21 conference! 🎉 My collaborators said it best, “We never really graduate from being first-gen.” Our first-gen identity matters and influences how we navigate our educational journey. #FirstGenPride #LatinxPride #PhDJourney
