Cambria Herrera supports all operations of the Latin American Studies Program as coordinator and Undergraduate/Graduate Advisor. They coordinate academic programming, visiting scholars, events, operations and finances.

Their research focuses on cross-cultural performance from a Chicana lens, using theatre as a tool for community building. When they are not working with students or making theatre they are seeking places rich in spicy soup, bodies of water, queer artistry, and live music. They are originally from Garden Grove, California but also call Portland, Oregon and San Diego, California home.
