I am a storyteller from the East side of Salinas, California, and a PhD student in Geography. I focus my studies on consciousness, land,  and pedagogy.

  • My research is about centering the world mapping that youth create in their everyday lives and how they reimagine themselves, the world, humanity, and our future.

  • There will be many of us that commit ourselves to a career in researching pedagogy, and won’t be in the discipline of education.

  • For my research to be understood, we must understand that time, political issues, and all forms of violences that trace themselves back to colonial beginnings have, and will continue to change the ways educators must challenge themselves to become advocates for youth, by ways on engendering a new understanding of child consciousness, and a new approach to our response towards its development.

  • My research inquires not on how geography confines and separates us across borders, but how geography aids us in understanding the ways we are particularly and literally creating difference within the confinements of Cartesian positioning of sameness, and how our understanding of this difference can provide us with further understanding of the universe and not just our position within its confinement but our connection to its process of being and transforming.
