Bio:
Angelica N. Garcia is a Ph.D. student in the Interdisciplinary Humanities graduate program. She works with Professor David Torres-Rouff. Her current research explores the reshaping of the U.S. southwest's built environment from 1880 to 1920. This research underscores the effects of the transformation from rural enclaves to modernized cities and industrial complexes within Colorado's Mexican American communities. Exploration of these urban transformations and its impacts on marginal communities will convey the monumentality of the processes of urban growth and the strides toward gaining, wealth, power, and industrial modernization.
