Yasmine Romero is Associate Professor of English at the University of Hawai‘i, West O‘ahu. Her praxis foregrounds students’ lived experiences by not only bringing diversified identities and identification practices into the classroom as pedagogical resources, but also complicating and nuancing the meaning of diversity through an intersectional lens. Her work has been published in Across the Disciplines and Critical Inquiry in Language Studies. She teaches courses in applied linguistics, rhetoric and composition, gender and sexuality studies, critical race theory and critical pedagogy.
