Faculty Spotlight

Dr. Sara Diáz-Montejano

Assistant Professor

"I remember the first time that my teacher created an assignment that made me feel empowered and proud of who I was, where I came from, and the language that my family and I spoke. I was a senior and I was so happy and so sad and angry that it had never happened before, and that's when I knew that I wanted to be a teacher so that I could make sure that students would always feel that way in my class." - Dr. Sara Díaz-Montejano
