Originally from Buffalo, New York, I moved to Somerville, Massachusetts & obtained a B.A. from Tufts University in Psychology, Spanish, and Linguistics. As a student and in the years following, I engaged in English teaching, community education, & legal services in the Bronx and Brooklyn, NY.
In 2016, I returned to New England to pursue a PhD in Sociology at Brown University, where I teach, advocate for students of color in academia, and examine the intersection of race, organizations, and cultural production.
