Now, for some info about me. My name's Pablo and I grew up in North County San Diego. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz for college because I love redwoods and figured going away to college would give me a chance to spread my wings and develop as an individual. (I now recognize the privilege that allowed me to have that choice!) I also liked that they didn't use grades but rather narrative evaluations--something I am trying to do in my classes now.

I earned my B.A. in Cultural Anthropology, completing my degree studying in Indonesia, an experience that opened my eyes to a new world of possibilities. After graduating, I taught English at Torrey Pines High School before earning an M.A. in Communication from SDSU. (I went back to SDSU and completed a second Master’s degree, this one in Environmental Studies and Sustainability.) I’ve taught at the university and community college level since 2005 and have been a full-time professor at San Diego Miramar College since 2014. For the first half of the 2020s, I participated in A LOT of committees and and also served as Academic Senate President. I am looking forward to spending the second half of the 2020s focusing on on teaching! I love teaching, and one of my favorite things about working with students is helping them explore and find their path in the world. I also love to share my passion for social and environmental concerns. Toward these ends, I have worked with labor groups and think tanks, coordinated a number of different community and college events, and when time allows, help out my community and neighborhood in various ways. But mostly, I'm just stoked to be going back to the classroom 100%!
