In an episode of the talk show "From Fearful to Fearless," Veronica Montes, assistant professor of sociology, reflects on her experiences immigrating to the U.S. from Mexico.
Montes' areas of research include immigration, gender, globalization, and Latinos in the U.S. She uses qualitative methods to investigate household economic strategies in Mexican families in both sending and receiving migrant communities. Through a grounded nuanced examination of individuals' migratory experiences, her work illuminates broader political and socioeconomic dynamics occurring at local, national, and international levels.
