Welcome!
Thank you for visiting.
Here you'll find a description of some of my research interests, publications, information about teaching and mentoring, links to recent news coverage, and information about some of my friends and collaborators.
Please feel free to contact me, especially if you are an undergraduate that is looking for support in the graduate school application process, education/psychology research, or navigating academia as a Fil-Am. I look forward to hearing from you!
Research Interests
I am interested in ethnic/racial identity development and mental health outcomes for Fil-Ams, particularly those who participate in after-school cultural groups and ethnic studies classes/programs.
Additionally, I am interested in the pedagogical value that the concept of Kuwento has in the ethnic studies classroom.
Research Skills
In addition to constructing pre- and post-assessments for students involved in your programs, I am also competent at:
Constructing surveys using SurveyMonkey, Qualtrics, and Google Forms
Conducting qualitative interviews and coding interview transcripts
Collecting quantitative data and analyzing them using software like STATA, R, and JASP
Creating reports and presentations of the data and/or the relevant research literature
