Area of Interest:
I am a Communication Specialist here at 大发 in the College of Education, Health & Human Services but I'm also an artist and leads others in using art as a tool to help them connect, communicate and cope with life struggles. I conduct campus and community art projects with various populations and for various purposes, but the research I am specifically interested in for this program is working with the Veteran population since my family is strongly connected with the military. I volunteer for Interfaith Community Services working with homeless individuals and Veterans and I teach online healing art courses through the CSU Institute for Palliative Care.
Area of Interest:
My research interests are gentrification in poor communities of color, specifically Latinx communities. My other interests include social factors that affect Latino males, school to prison pipeline, youth gangs, civil-gang injunctions, etc.
