Ana Campos-Holland, PhD

Ever since I became a sociologist, I have prioritized qualitative research methodologies that capture the complexities of social life in context.

Within the sociology of childhood/adolescence, I use youth-centered qualitative methodologies to create platforms for children and adolescents’ voices to be heard. Specifically, I aim to develop a deeper understanding of youth peer culture in the context of social inequality.

Moreover, I practice a teaching-meets-research pedagogical approach, maintaining an active research agenda that incorporates undergraduate-student researchers from research design to publication.
