Natasha N. Piñeiros was born and raised in Quito, Ecuador until 2009 when her family relocated to the United States. As a first-generation immigrant and first-generation college student, Natasha began her undergraduate career at Bergen Community College in New Jersey where she found her love for student affairs and higher education. She later transferred to The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) where she earned a Bachelor's degree in Communication Studies and Spanish Language. Natasha is bilingual in Spanish and English, and could use some practice on her American Sign Language procifiency. When she is not in a classroom, you can find Natasha dancing, eating sushi (or empanadas), and traveling.
Natasha is passionate about providing access and guidance to low-income, first-generation, students of color in higher education. Her current research interests include learning how community colleges structure their campus environments to meet the needs of Latinx students. Natasha is currently pursuing her master's degree in Student Affairs at the University of Maryland, College Park where she worked as an academic advisor for graduate students in architecture, and will be transitioning to work as a graduate assistant supporting student organizations and programming.
