About Karina A. Concepción

Born and raised under the Puerto Rican sun, I’m a passionate bilingual (English & Spanish!) educator driven by a fundamental belief: every student, regardless of their story, deserves high-quality instruction and the chance to thrive. That’s why I got into the world of Teaching and Learning, earning a Bachelor’s with a specialization in bilingual education from the University of Houston. Now, I’m pursuing a Master’s in Educational Leadership and Human Resource Studies at CSU. I’m committed to amplifying student voices and empowering educators in our collective ascent to academic excellence. My passion lies in equity – ensuring every learner has the resources and support to reach their full potential. When I’m not working or studying, you might find me lost in a book; my favorite one is “Piranesi” by Susanna Clarke.
