Johanna Moya Fábregas, Con Mi MADRE

Con Mi MADRE—Empowering Latinas Through Education

Dr. Moya Fábregas will share the history and work of Con Mi MADRE, as well as its generational impact on the Latina community in Central Texas.

About our speaker:

Dr. Johanna Moya Fábregas received her undergraduate degree in Latin American Studies and French from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and her doctorate in History at Indiana University-Bloomington.

The role of Executive Director at Con Mi MADRE brings together Dr. Moya Fábregas’ background and personal mission of empowering Latina students and their families by breaking down barriers to success.  Her professional experience is anchored education, leadership, and mentoring. She has been a professor, editor, project manager, and consultant.  

Education is one of the biggest values in her family, who moved to the United States in search of opportunities for their daughter. She has significant experience teaching and working with first generation college students in many capacities: student, leader, mentor, and educator.  

An immigrant herself, Johanna came to the United States at the age of 14 after living in four Latin American countries, and her parents became the biggest advocates for her advanced education. She personally identifies with Con Mi MADRE's mission because she has lived it.
