Dr. Stephanie Rivera Berruz  was the recipient of the Woodrow Wilson Career Enhancement Fellowship for her work on Latin/a American Philosophy for the academic year of 2017-2018. Her main research interests lie in Latin American Philosophy and Latinx feminisms as well philosophy of race, gender, and sexuality. She recently co-edited an anthology: Comparative Studies in Latin American and Asian Philosophies (2018), and her publications appear in Hypatia, Inter-American Journal of Philosophy, and Essays in Philosophy.
