Michelle Angela Domingues

Dr. Michelle Angela Domingues (pronouns she/they/ella) describes herself as a multiracial White Chicana. Dr. Domingues spent 17 years with Portland State University, where she is most proud of co-constructing a creative reuse cultural education center in the College of Education Reggio-inspired lab school, and co-publishing in the Journal of Childhood Studies. Dr. Domingues main focus is leadership in bridging early childhood ecology, culture and learning. Other areas of interest include Reggio Emilia approach, neo-materialism, inclusive identity studies, critical mixed race studies, Chicana studies and critical feminist post humanism. Their work supports ECE practitioners to critically examine and resist historically constructed, normative views of young children, their families, schools, and communities. Dr. Domingues looks forward to germinating Fresno State REmedio, a creative reuse cultural education center located in the Kremen School of Education and Human Development.
