–Philosophy for Children in the Borderlands/Filosofía infantil en la frontera–
The Philosophy for Children in the Borderlands project seeks to engage in children on both sides of the Mexico-U.S. border in philosophical dialogues. Philosophy for Children (also referred to as P4C) starts with the understanding that every child is a philosopher in nature. The Philosophy for Children in the Borderlands program creates bilingual spaces where children who live in the Ciudad Juárez-El Paso region can discuss their experiences of living on the border.

In 2016, I was involved in the creation of a 20-minute documentary about the program.
–Latino Roots–
The Latino Roots Project, created by Dr. Lynn Stephen and Dr. Gabriela Martínez, from the University of Oregon, seeks to broaden the historical narrative of the state of Oregon through studying, theorizing, and documenting the depth and breadth of Latino and Latin American immigration, settlement, social movements, and civic and political integration in Oregon during the 20th century. As a graduate student involved in this project I produced and directed a short documentary film in 2011.
