​

Andrea explores identity, relationships, and place through her creative writing and academic research. Andrea's focus is on Borderlands writing, storytelling, and knowledge-keeping. She explores how storytelling at the intersections of identity is an act of resistance, decolonization, and movement toward social justice. 

 

Andrea holds both a doctoral and master's degree in Mexican American Studies and a master's degree in American Indian Studies. She is also a writing specialist and has assisted emerging and established academic writers in developing their voices for 20 years. She currently directs an academic writing support center at a Research 1 university.
