TARA LÓPEZ, PH.D.
Researcher. Educator. Writer.
Tara López, Ph.D. sees knowledge a vehicle for both personal and community growth. In particular, music and other forms of culture shed light on our capacity as humans for ingenuity, social change, joy, and love. My work as a researcher, educator, and writer seeks to unfurl hidden forms of culture, so we as social beings can see the best of ourselves to pursue a more just and equitable world.
