"Scientia Potentia Est" -Sir Francis Bacon
I have been at Seton Hall University since 2021, currently working as an adjunct faculty in the Core Curriculum and a Senior Student Success Advisor in the Educational Opportunity Program at Seton Hall University. My research interests is examining societal and cultural influences within Latinx families, specifically how institutions (e.g., education, culture, religion) affect parent-adolescent relationships. In the past, I was a National Science Foundation Pre-Doctoral Research Fellow, examining ambiguous loss of family relationships among Latinx college students from 2014-2017. Currently, I am working on a qualitative study on Latinx first generation college students and family relationships.
