Adriana Ceron is a PhD student in the Department of Sociology and a 2021-22 Graduate Fellow at the Yale Center for the Study of Indigeneity, and Transnational Migration (RITM). She is broadly interested in questions at the intersection of international migration, race and ethnicity, and social stratification. To date, her research has examined the Latino population across three main areas: ethnic and racial boundary-making and relations, public attitudes towards immigrants, and immigrant incorporation through education among the children of immigrants.
A first-generation college graduate, Adriana completed her BA in sociology with a minor in Chicano/a-Latino/a Studies from Pitzer College in 2018. She is also a recipient of the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and the MMUF program.
Adriana was born in El Salvador and immigrated to Los Angeles, CA at the age of five.
