Hello, welcome to my blog!

My name is Jacob Lacuesta and I am currently a teaching resident at the Alder Graduate School of Education. My research interests include Asian American relations with media and technology and community activist pedagogies.

I received my masters degree in Asian American Studies at San Francisco State University. My thesis titled America is on the Screen: Analyzing Asian American Images During the COVID-19 Pandemic analyzed news media, social media algorithms, and non-profit media to articulate how the community was represented during the height of the pandemic.

I received my bachelors in Communication and Cinema Digital Media at the University of California, Davis where I graduated summa cum laude.
