¡Hola!
I am Dr. Mónica I. Feliú Mójer, an award-winning bilingual science communicator connecting science with people’s lives, who they are, and what they care about. I have almost 20 years of experience in culturally relevant and inclusive science communication, community engagement, media, filmmaking, and public speaking. I tap into my PhD training, personal background, and culture to engage marginalized audiences, especially Puerto Ricans and other Spanish-speakers, with science.
