Adriana Ceron
Adriana is a fifth-year Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Sociology at Yale University. Broadly, her research uses multiple methods to explore questions at the nexus of international migration, law and society, social demography, and inequality.
Most of her current research examines the impact of immigration law and enforcement on the lives of immigrants and their families (mainly from Central America), who live in the U.S. and their home countries. Adriana’s dissertation project is a multi-sited, multi-method study on how Salvadoran immigrants navigate and negotiate life after deportation.
Her research has been published in Ethnic and Racial Studies and RSF: The Russell Sage Foundation Journal of the Social Sciences. Adriana’s work has also received generous funding support from the ASA Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grant (DDRIG), the Russell Sage Foundation Dissertation Grant, and the National Science Foundation (NSF), among others.
Adriana graduated from Pitzer College in 2018 with a B.A. in Sociology with a minor in Chicano/a-Latino/a Studies. At Pitzer, she was a Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellow.
