Natalia Morales

Natalia is pursuing a double major in Mexican American Studies and Gender & Women's Studies at the University of Arizona. She is graduating in May 2026 but is already planning on attending graduate school to get a PhD in Chicano Studies with an emphasis on Chicana and queer studies.

Natalia works as a tutor at the University of Arizona's Writing Center. She has participated in BIPOC activism, experiencing firsthand what activism looks like in different contexts and the importance of fostering community in all places. Natalia likes to keep humanity and passion at the center of everything she does, including her professional and academic career as a scholar, researcher, and, eventually, professor.

During the Spring, Natalia will work at MOCA, the Museum of Contemporary Arts in Tucson.
